He told me there's no Linux support. I should try Keirf's utils or access the hardware with a serial connection. May be I could try the Supercard in a VM.

A bit OT. I tried the fdadap card successfully reading and writing SD and DD disks, together with a standard ISA controller. Had to try a bit, since not every disk controller manages SD writes. So the FDADAP should be ok, and the problems lie on the Supercard side. I contacted the Supercard guy, in order to know if there's a Linux support. I've no windows machines, only some specialized DOS one. -------- Messaggio originale -------- Da: John Foust <jfo...@threedee.com> Data:13/08/2015 04:46 (GMT+01:00) A: cctalk@classiccmp.org Oggetto: Re: Writing 8" floppies with SuperCard Pro At 07:27 PM 8/11/2015, Josh Dersch wrote: >Thus far I've been successful in creating images of floppies, but less >successful in writing them back out. Thus far I've tried a pair of Shugart >851s and a Qume QumeTrack 842. I'm using a DBit FDADAP >(http://www.dbit.com/fdadap.html) to deal with cabling and the TG43 signals. I'd tried the SuperCard Pro / FDADAP combo last March with no success. I hope to return to the task. Maybe it was a problem with my drive(s). - John
