That's quite small. >What length is HardImage1? (thumps head on table). Its an image of a Conner CP3044, and it's 42854845 bytes long. Thanks to a little bit of stupidity on my part, and an oddity in the way firefox rendered a specification page for that drive, I had the .arcemrc all wrong. I now have: MFM disc 1 980 5 17 512 Which I got by getting the right number of heads (!) and then dividing the size of the file by the product of 980*5*17 and rounding slightly to get the sector size. OK, probably totally wrong, but I've no idea how to get the right figure for that value. That gets me the following error -------------- HDC New command: Data=0x0 - unknown/unimplemented PC=0x38e0028 HDC: Param block contents: 0x1 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0xc 0x0 0x2 0xa9 0xa 0xd 0xc 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 Aborted which sort of looks like progress. arcem crashes at that point. I suspect I still don't have the sector size right - could you give me some guidance about that? Incidentally, and totally off topic, I inherited a whole load of Acorn user and Acorn computing magazines going back to the mid eighties - about 7 copier paper boxes full. Would someone be interested in giving them a home? I haven't really got the space for them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
