Hi Manuel!
I use tree programs to manage the disk-images.
1.- getdisk.com to do the disk-image from floppy
2.- putdisk.com to restore the floppy from a diskimage
3.- start.com to run the disk-image.
I use IDE interface, but I think that these programs will work fine with
your gouda SCSI-interface.
I remember that these programs can be downloaded from funet, but they were
compressed in a file named....... hdemu.???.....hdmenu.???.......sorry, I
don't remember the exact name.
If you have problems to get it, you only have to tell me something and I
will send you via e-mail.
And, you will find that some programs/games work fine and others not...
p.e. All games from compile work fine.
Any game from micro-cabin work. :(
Perhaps work fine between 70%-80% of the sector-based games.
bye.
