All B-DOS versions have a standard track skew of
1
I don't know what B-DOS
version you are using, but I can
help you with version 1.5a
and 1.7q at the moment.
You might try the following (as noted by Andrew
Collier).
for B-DOS 1.5a
CLEAR 32767
LOAD "bdos"code
32777
POKE (32768+3744),27
save
over"bdos"code 32777,filelength
reset and boot again.
for B-DOS 1.7q
CLEAR 32767
LOAD "B-DOS17"code 32777
POKE
(32768+4479),27
save over
"B-DOS17"code 32777,15800
reset and boot again.
If this doesn't work then it
might have something to do with steppingrates.
Maybe Edwin Blink knows what's going wrong, as
he wrote the
B-DOS disk formatting code (ahem).
