luckybuck Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) Hi together, In order to make progress with the Kyan Pascal project, we need some Pascal program files to test the versions down to earth. BigBen was so nice to make an image of my Pascal programs from the university, which can do such a test in a very good way. So, the main question is, does someone know, how to create a .dsk file or a CP/M disk compatible format out of a SuperCard Pro-image? I just need the text files, that is all. Further, during the Fuji, I discovered an OSS disk with MS-DOS? OSS_BASIC_A_Plus_version_3.05_with_MS-DOS.atr Didn't checked this so far for real, but it would be great for Atari. :-) Thank you all very much for your help in advance. All the best.

AtariGeezer Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I see DOS XL, but no MS-Dos... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckybuck Posted August 3, 2018 Author Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) Can be a fake, but the # of sectors is much higher that the normal OSS DOS with 46 sectors instead of 53... Edited August 3, 2018 by luckybuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 try it with only double density disk drives... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckybuck Posted August 4, 2018 Author Share Posted August 4, 2018 I thought something like this, but why 53 sectors instead of 46 for DOS.SYS... Ah, maybe binary compare with the 'normal' DOS.SYS from OSS, too many 1:1s => proof of fake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckybuck Posted August 4, 2018 Author Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) Ah, good idea Doctor, the normal .dsk-image is 143K, which is near the Atari DD format. Sadly, next chance to do this in October... Edited August 4, 2018 by luckybuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckybuck Posted August 4, 2018 Author Share Posted August 4, 2018 Ah, o. k. my mistake, had in mind the 2.30p: this has 46 sectors. O. K., so the main problem would be to convert the scp-image to a dsk-image... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ijor Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 O. K., so the main problem would be to convert the scp-image to a dsk-image... I believe both HxC and Samdisk can do that (see links below). Otherwise I would contact Jim at SCP website. https://hxc2001.com/ http://simonowen.com/samdisk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckybuck Posted August 4, 2018 Author Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) Thank you very much ijor. Samdisk in Terminal of macOS did the job! I really can't believe to see my uni programs back from 1990 in a .dsk-image again in 2018... Incredible! That is great help. :-) Thank you so much! Now, we have the programs to test Kyan Pascal... What a wonderful day. Thank you and BigBen for recording. :-) In Terminal: ./samdisk Pascal.scp Pascal.dsk and finished in seconds....
