Hi,
I'm trying to transfer some ADFS data off a Zip drive, and I've compiled the 0.8.10 source. (I turned off JIT, because it just gave me a blue screen.)
I used dd to copy the disk written on my A3000's SCSI Zip, using a USB Zip on my Linux box, but I read in the docs that its geometry isn't supported: fdisk said it has this:
Disk /dev/sdb: 100 MB, 100663296 bytes
4 heads, 48 sectors/track, 1024 cylinders, total 196608 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Even assuming I find where in the source it's hard wired to 63 sectors and 16 heads, is it likely to be able to read the data, or isn't it that simple? I tried arcem (with suitable configuration) and it claimed the image wasn't an ADFS disk.
Thanks,
Tim
