Images

Images (made with dd) of 5.25 inch floppies.

• 210628F01-XX-01D.image.gz Note: this image is small, and probably not usable, due to a read error on this floppy. See the Errors section.

Errors

Read error(s) on the floppy

tingo@kg-t2$ dd if=/dev/fd1 of=./210628F01-XX-01D.image bs=1024
dd: /dev/fd1: Input/output error
993+0 records in
993+0 records out
1016832 bytes transferred in 193.908678 secs (5244 bytes/sec)

I retried a few times, but it stopped at the same amount of records every time.

The resulting image is small

tingo@kg-core1$ ll -h 210628F01-XX-01D.image
-rw-r--r--  1 tingo  users  -  993k Jul 26 22:32 210628F01-XX-01D.image

and ndfs can't understand it

tingo@kg-core1$ ndfs -i 210628F01-XX-01D.image
Directory name            : 210628F01-XX-01D
Object file index pointer : 508 SI: 0x1 (indexed)
User file index pointer   : 510 SI: 0x1 (indexed)
Bit file pointer          : 306 SI: 0x0 (contiguous)
No. of unreserved pages   : 1
Error reading page 510: No error: 0

so it is probably unusable.
