Oh, das ist jetzt doch ein bisschen schneller gewachsen, als ich gedacht hatte. Bin inzwischen bei deutlich über 1 GB angekommen. Nur mit Disketten Images. Seufz...

I got my hands on another brand-new 3.5inch disk drive. The ALPS DF354H148F from 2003 just did a perfect job, reading IBM-PC, Mac 800K and Amiga 880K diskettes. Using a Greaseweazle V4.1 and/or KryoFlux board.

Okay, das ist echt ein Vorteil vom Greaseweazle im Vergleich zum KryoFlux: Das Ding funktioniert A) schon mit USB-C und liefert B) tatsächlich selbst den Strom zum Betrieb von zumindest den 3,5 Zoll Laufwerken. Damit spart man sich den eigenen Stromanschluss für das Laufwerk und kann das Setup so viel einfacher auch auf den Schreibtisch legen. Find ich extrem nice! 😎

I just got myself a beautiful Greaseweazle V4.1. Here it is next to my trusty, old KryoFlux board. I have a feeling, these two are going to be best friends! 😜

Falls jemand noch Spaß an klassischen DOS-Versionen hat, hab' ich hier soeben die vollständige, deutschsprachige Fassung von "PC DOS 7" hochgeladen. IBM nutzte hier Disketten im 1.840K großen XDF-Format, was ich eine interessante Besonderheit finde. Das 1998 erschienene, offizielle Y2K-Fix-Pack ist ebenfalls mit dabei. Funktioniert alles einwandfrei in 86Box!

Viel Spaß! 😜😎

Today, PC DOS 7 was the first time I personally encountered floppy disks in the 1.840K XDF format. For a moment, I was really confused and couldn't handle these disks at all. They appeared broken or unreadable, no matter what I tried! Luckily, after a little tinkering, I finally managed to make it work... and beautifully!
(HxCFloppyEmulator for the win! 😎 )

I just uploaded the original version of Lemmings for the Commodore Amiga to the Internet Archive. This is the international PAL release from 1991. I guess, it's nothing new or special, but this upload comes with good 600dpi scans of both diskettes, as well as KryoFlux streams and CT-RAW disk images. Have fun!

I spent a few bucks on a pair of original PAL diskettes of Lemmings for the Commodore Amiga. Lemmings was first released on February 14, 1991. These disks don‘t even have a valid file system, so I need to use them as CT-RAW or KryoFlux streams.
P.S. I just uploaded complete scans and disk images:

Holy shit, die Dinger sehen mal so richtig alt aus! Sind aber noch absolut intakte Microsoft System-Disketten mit Windows/286 2.11 aus dem Jahr 1989. Insgesamt 4 x 1.200K HD-Disketten im 5 1/4 Zoll Format. :computerfairies:
Ganz nebenbei ist das nun auch mein 500. Upload im Internet Archive. Viel Spaß damit! 😎

I just found pristine KryoFlux streams for the 5.25inch 360K Blockout diskette and thus upgraded my personal library, as well as this entry on the Internet Archive. Blockout is a true icon of 80s retro gaming!

Using software written in 2026 (by @colin_mcmillen) on a computer released in 1983 to extract digital photos from a digital camera released in 1994.
Apple QuickTake 200 connected via serial to my 128K enhanced Apple IIe (video output via composite to CRT and to LCD via VidHD video card) with "large" volumes mounted via CFFA3000 flash storage card.
The 640x480 camera images (JPEGs) are decoded and scaled for display in the double high-res graphics mode at 560x192 monochrome pixels. Just lovely.

From 1991, here are both of the SimCity graphics packs for Commodore Amiga. "Ancient Cities", as well as "Future Cities" for the 1 Meg Version of the game. Of course, you need the main game to use these. 😎

So, jetzt kam ich am Ende des Tages auch noch dazu, die MadTV Diskette für den Amiga ins Internet Archive hochzuladen. Auch wenn die Diskette jetzt tatsächlich mal nicht kopiergeschützt ist, habe ich auch trotzdem sämtliche Disk Image Formate dazugepackt, die ich hatte. Also KryoFlux Streams, CTRAW und das normale ADF Disk Image.

Hab tatsächlich lange überlegt, ob ich das hier überhaupt hochladen sollte:
Eine noch unfertige, nur für PC-Hersteller bestimmte OEM-Boot-Diskettenvorlage für Windows 95 SR-2. Noch ohne CD-ROM-Treiber, aber mit Anleitungen und OEM-Hinweisen zur Installation in AUTOEXEC.BAT, CONFIG.SYS und DRVCOPY.INF durch den jeweiligen OEM-Partner.
Kopiert man eine funktionierende SAMPLE.SYS Treiberdatei auf die Diskette, funktioniert sie einwandfrei. Viele Hersteller passten eine solche Diskette aber natürlich noch weiter an.

Hier gibt es nun auch noch die Windows 95 OEM CD-ROM des SR-2.1 aus dem Jahre 1997, sowie eine dazu kompatible Boot-Diskette mit CD-ROM-Treibern verschiedener Hersteller. Das Windows 95, Service Release 2.1 unterstützte bereits FAT32, Partitionen über einer Größe von 2GB, sowie grundlegende USB-Treiber. Die Boot-Diskette liegt sowohl als .img Disk Image, als auch in Form sauberer KryoFlux Streams vor.

Would you look at that?! One of my USB floppy disk drives does actually support Microsoft's 1.68MB DMF diskettes! And here I was, thinking these disks were only readable by my KryoFlux controller. I guess, I was wrong! Amazing! 😃
