Re: A3000D, Cloanto 3.X, bad floppy?

issue with floppy drive is resolved. i bought 2 of the last set for A3000.
but... there's an issue with sfs formatted drives.
they appear twice on the workbench. normally, and greyed icon.

i contact cloanto about this, they investigate, and told me the bug is in sfs itself, bug with indentification...
they send me a patched sfs wich solve the problem. but nowdays, sfs for 68k seems "dead". so idk if they can officialy release a patch at the moment.

and, they are wrongly labeled for the A3000.
i bought 2 set at vesalia, and all 2 have their label U180 U181 swapped... so, the first time i tried... i let you guess what happened, until i try swapping them.
so maybe you can face the same for the A1200 chips.

I've tried contacting cloanto through his website, and through amiga forever, and never got a response or acknowledgement.
you may have to be a bit patient. they took 1 month to reply me.
but once they did, i was followed regulary by one person,  unitl the problem solved.
