Anyone interested in a run of an SD card based version of the floppy emulator?

How about designing the adapter to connect to the external floppy port (ideally making it ultra-compact, accompanied with a nice case to make it matchy, matchy with the Amiga 500 case)? The only trouble that I can see is that the adapter would have to assume DF1: ownership this way, unless the Amiga is opened and the on-board floppy drive disconnected from the motherboard, or jumpered to be DF1: leaving DF0: available to the adapter. Just brainstorming ideas. :-)

Yeah, that might be the smart thing, I don't want to hack up my G1200 anymore. And I could just velcro it to the top or something. Also, you could move it to other machines if needed.

About DF0: - I use a terminator on mine, that lets me use DF1 to boot from if needed.

If the entire adapter would simply be "the plug" that goes into the ext. floppy connector, you wouldn't even need to velcro, or anything like that. Make it look and sized for instance like an external SCSI terminator, with an integrated LCD in it and a hole for an SD card.

My concern with DF1: vs DF0: that I brought up is merely to be able to force the adapter to assume DF0: role, as a lot of games will not boot unless they detect that they are dealing with a DF0: drive. :-( ...so in essence, DF0: role needs to be there for broader/full compatibility with games.
