L/+WRONGF
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

WRONG FORMAT ADFS?
MY Master 128 will only read track 0 on EUG #49 ADFS (FDrive=2). I tried
other values of FDrive to no avail. A 40 TPI disk should only be used in
40 Track format per side! Perhaps this is the problem. ADFS M format is
80T Single Sided.
Please send a disk that works.
Note that I am producing some new levels for CHUCKIE EGG. More soon!

THERE were impressions to the upper of your 5.25" disk, probably caused
by the franking machine at the Post Office. Even though disks are pushed
as far down in the envelopes as they will go, the occasional accident of
this type is inevitable.
ADFS disks are compiled in the M format as this is that of the most
popular Electron Plus 3. As you haven't had problems before with running
EUG issues on your Master 128, then this adds to any suspicion that the
damage to the disk is to blame for its failure to load. Also, I !BOOT up
all disks despatched to test they display the loading picture before
they are despatched.
You will have received a new EUG #49 before you read this.
