A voyage of disk-coveryLovely! Thanks you for your kind mentions. A good read.
The bug has got you now! It is great fun, isn't it. It won't be so irritating from now on, now that you have done it.
If you ever do get one of those disks with a FM track 0 and need to make "bizarre mutant" images, drop me a line - I wrote a bizarre mutant image making utility that works most times - you have to have your brain in gear a bit though.
If you want to learn about frustration and irritation, just wait until you get a disk that does not read so well, and you have to try 10 times with frequent head cleans to get a set of dumps that can be built into a good single dump. The saddest thing for me is getting a disk of an undumped game and not being able to get a good dump. That is not very frequent thankfully.
If you need help hosting your dumps, please get in touch - I am sure there is still some disk allocation free on retroprograms.
