Adf to real amiga disk

[jeffimix]

Umm.... quite probably you can copy perfect Amiga floppies on a windows machine. I haven't tried it but:

I use a program called Rawrite
It is available for MAc, Linux, Unix, and windows
It takes floppy 'images' and writes them straight to disk. This is usually most useful in wirting boot disks, or OS install disks. It is possible, but actually not so likely,  that rawrite wouldn't be able to handle adf files, if they are simply perfect copies of the disk image though it should have no problems (it'll take any format, it justs directly writes the data)

Its rather irritating for someone like me that I have to use 3rd party products to handle image files.

So its a hardware problem dang.... works for Linux images, which are a different format (RAW) , but of course those are built for X86 floppy devices...

I'm beginning to think again the Rawrite could write ADF files to disks. The thing where he had the picture of a floppy spilt into sectors is Formatting. Rawrite is a utility to nto have to use windows/dos format disks. It is specifically built to get around that. I haven't an Amiga to try it out on, but anyone with  a Mac, Windows, or Linux Pc and an Amiga really should try it. It won't write the same way windows does, it can write disks windows can't read because of different format, for example I can write images of mac disks to it, and it comes out mac formatted.
