Menu Disk Project


SoulBuster

Recommended Posts

I have completed the work on preserving My Original Disks and my Non-Original Disks and have moved on to building my TNFS server for Fujinet; www.naberhood.com.

 

In the above two threads there was interest in menu disks so I started this project.  While I am building my TNFS server I am going to collect and organize any and everything I find that can be put on a menu and post them here and on the TNFS server.  This can include rips from Cassette, Cartridge, Disk and XEX, etc.

101 Programming Tips & Tricks - Boot with BASIC - This is a conversion from cassette to disk.  Who wants to load this 101 times from cassette?  While making this I ran into 2 limitations.  The first is the number of files that can be on a disk and the 2nd was the number of entries that can go into the menu program.  That is why there are 3 disks.

I have had to re-think my basic loaders.  The Nuc+ cannot run Sparta X, Sparta 3.2 or MyDos 4.5 reliably with the basic loaders.  At least I have had no luck at it.  I want to run them with DSDD.

 

I get why SDX won't run as there is not Cart port, yet.  Will the NUC+ ever be able to load .bin or .car from Fujinet?

But why does Sparta 3.2x hang when booting. Every version.

With Mydos, I get file not found when trying to load from the basic menu.  It can load the menu but then file not found to run any program from it.

 

So my solution is Real DOS build 30. Sparta and Atari DOS compatible and boots quickly on the NUC+. So I am redoing all basic menu loaders (games and utilities) to use Real DOS.

Have you looked at MyPicoDos?

https://www.horus.com/~hias/atari/#mypdos

 

you can even build atrfiles using dir2atr and have mypicodos built in 

 

bin and car will never be loadable via an sio based interface, you will need a cart port for that. This is why the avgcart is so special. It's a cart with an sio lead attached to it so it can load bin/car but can also handle atr/atx/cas

3-D Supergraphics (1980)(United Software of America)(US)[BASIC] - The ATR that I found of this program only booted to basic and you had to go to DOS to get the names of the programs.  It appears that it is a re-tooling of .CAS versions I found. It did have a menu, but I suspect it was ripped from an Antic Magazine disk and showed all the files.  I reformulated the disk with RealDOS 30 and used the menu program I am using for other basic menu disks and it shows only the basic programs.  This is the result.

32 BASIC Programs for the Atari (SSDD) - This originally came on two SSSD disks and and was not even a boot disk and did not have a menu.  I reformulated it to boot with Real DOS 30 and the standard BASIC menu on one SSDD disk.  The programs are in the order that they were on the original disks.

3 Sector Boot Scott Adams' Adventures - This contains all 14 adventures that were made for the Atari.  You'll note that the number 14 is skipped as it was only made for the Texas Instruments computer.  According to Scott Adams, it is the 14th adventure.

 

These can also be found on my TNFS Server (www.naberhood.com) as ATRs, 3 Sector Boot Menus and XEX.
