What would be a better solution: Sinclair QL Tetroid disk interface with Compact flash card or Gold card clone + some storage device ? 1) question of games: For playing games - get the Tetroid interface. For calculations, get the Gold Card. But games, with accelerated processor, are accelerated to ...

Possibly the new firmware - FlashFloppy - can bypass the HFE format and read images directly.
But I not tried this.
(Based on anticipation, that the physical format of QL disk is simillar to PC and only the logical format is different.)

But to transfer files back to 68k/OS, You need to have baud.prog and copy.prog already in the system (MD: or ROM:).
Hen and egg problem.

68k/OS supports ROM disk. This is one possible way, how to import essential file (FORMAT.PROG, BAUD.PROG, COPY.PROG) into your system: to save them to ROMdisk, and then copy from ROM to MD: device (using COPY.PROG). There are 2 ROM slots on the 68k/OS card, 16 KB each (32KB altogether) for the ROM d...

What happens, complete crash? Did you try the latest FPGA versions?

Just freezed after start.
But it is some years ago. Maybe new FPGA updates solved the problem.

On MiST and other FPGA Amiga clones, QDOS Classic does not work.

No, Trump Card (andf QL) is incompatible with TR-DOS format (and its silly sector size 256 bytes).

Yes, the Toolkit is part of Trump card ROM.
