Sd2iec

Evening all, I have brought one of these sd2iec devices from the future is 8 bit on eBay, anyway it's ready to pick up from the delivery people.

So my question is, I have a few boxes of disks, a few of the contents aren't on here, so is there a program out there for copying real disks to the sd card on a c64 ? Or more a case of making a load of blank disks on the sd card on a pc and using a disk copy program on the c64 to fill them?

Sorry I haven't really looked into it much yet, it seemed a good idea to buy one after a few beers lol.

Thanks in advance

James

Thank you, that looks just what I'm after, except I see there's possible 1571 drive problems and I'm afraid that's what I have, I will testify out myself the weekend,

thanks

Well, despite the comments on that release saying it won't work with a 1571 drive, I don't seem to have any problems making image files 1571 to sd2iec although all the disks so far have been single sided.

Almost the problems of work on "c1571" mainly refers to c128D. As far as I remember, after reinitiation for transfer a next part of data, a few bytes of code in the drive was destroyed (Rom initiation routine). After moving forward the code by a few bytes, the problem disappeared. Unfortunately, the exception is the drive in c128dcr - I could not force this to correct transfer - it has a little different mechanics.

I'm still working on the development of this project - the editor will be working during opened side borders (64 chars at a single line).
