Hi all, Anyone have any ideas how to read (and obviously back up) my CPM 5.25 diskettes left over from my Kaypro 2x CPM machine used 1984-1987? Somewhere I have a normal IBM PC compatible 5.25 drive, but CPM floppies had different formatting, I think both in software and in the iron oxide.
I'm thinking if I can ddrescue these things to a file, and loop-mount them using some sort of CPM format (didn't the mount command used to be able to do that?), maybe I could get the info into a file representation instead of a drive representation.
