Re: asm6809 2.3 released

Hi Ciaran, I downloaded the new version and it accepts gently the extended indirect. Thanks a bunch!!! cheers pere Pd. By the way, as I had to use JSR [$XXXX,PCR] and the routines were near the code, it has been producing shorter code than the extended indirect I was using :D It is just one byte for...

Re: DWEEBS - applications for DWLOAD - DriveWire

I have taken a look at the V2FLO source, the one that has problems when the disks are not same geometry and have found it very easy to add that control.
So here you are the new 8.4 version with the source as well. Hope it will be the very last one :D

cheers

Re: DWEEBS - applications for DWLOAD - DriveWire

Hi Jon, just finished the DosPlus4.9b tests ... For simplicity I have used XRoar with the DosPlus49b ROM and Becker connexion. The 'standard' disks 180k, 360k double sided and 720K have worked without problems. The dreaded 360K single sided has given these results: - Copying from floppy to VDK file ...

Re: DWEEBS - applications for DWLOAD - DriveWire

Hi Jon, finally I had the time to work again with these dweebs (FLO2V and V2FLO) I added, as you suggested for DosPlus4.9, the needed code to update the number of sectors x track before each floppy disk access. I have modified the code so that now it 'understands' and 'treats' right the infamous dis...

Re: Dragon OS9 with drivewire support

Hi Jon, I could simply say yes ... to all of your notes. Certainly my dweeb does tweek the geometry of that ugly format and sends it out wrongly. That's a point to change in the future ... Concerning the DOS, I have only the ascii files I attached the other day. I am not willing to use DREAM any mor...

Re: Dragon OS9 with drivewire support

Hi Jon, last tests I have done were quite a nightmare! I did format a disk in my Dragon: DSKINIT1,1,80 and it created a 360K disk. When I sent it to DW4, I got a VDK that once opened with XRoar showed to be 360K too, great. But it had in the header the values $28,$02 (40 tracks, 2 sides) mainly beca...

Re: Dragon OS9 with drivewire support

One more observation (although it doesn't affect me because I don't have any disks in this format), your logic for setting the sectors/track to 36 on detection of a disk with 1440 sectors isn't correct for an 80T/SS disk. You are right, but I haven't used /tried any of this kind of disks. This 'spe...
