Even though Greaseweazle reads this Amiga disk of "Space Quest" without any issues with 100% valid sectors, there's still an on-disk copy protection scheme hidden inside there. I just ran into a crash trying to boot from the simple 880K ADF Amiga DOS disk image. 🥺
Fortunately, using a CT-RAW disk image, made from the .raw streams, worked just fine and started the game. 😉

"Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards". From 1987 for the IBM-PC!
Another set of beautiful A2R and HFE disk images from "floppyarchaeology". This one also has an on-disk copy-protection. Everything's working perfectly. This is fun! :computerfairies: 😆

Nice! I just found working sets of "Applesauce A2R" and "HxC HFE" disk images of "Space Quest II" on the Internet Archive! As with many games from the 80s, these SQ2 disks are copy-protected! Their addition makes my collection even more EPIC! 😎

Preservation of retro games is important!
