Description: Emulator allows to choose an ADF image from the flash media (SD/MMC card), then loads it into memory (legacy 4MB SIMM), converts it into MFM tracks and deliver these to Amiga's floppy bus. Amiga senses it as drive DF1:. I was able to perform DISKCOPY from DF1: to DF0: which gave me perfect Amiga floppy :-)

| tnt23 Posts:195 | December 13, 2005, 09:31:09 AM Definitely. I thought of hacking a simple utility to convert 512-byted sectors from .ADF into some form of .MFM file on PC. Resulting file would be 1.8Megs, or roughly twice as big as .ADF. Shouldn't be a problem since MMC storage is quite cheap these days. Now it takes MCU good 1m45s to convert ADF into MFM, and 1.8M should load in less then one minute. |

| tnt23 Posts:195 | December 07, 2005, 09:32:33 AM Right away :-) |
