Hi,

I can read QWA files, FLP image files, BDI image file on sQLux.

How can I read/write to MDV image files?

Using the MDI driver?

Hi

Yes I use MDI just wondered if there was a ntive MDV driver available in sqlux.

No, I have not really touched the disk support code from uQLx. The infrastructure is all there though if someone wanted to add that!

The MDV format has multiple formats, so I prefer to FLP format images, this more compatible from sQLux to Q68 with FDI.

I converted all my DP Software collection to FLP image so I can use them on the Q68 and FDI, maybe sQLux.

Release v1.0.5 now contains the sound and joystick code from @Exile

It also has changes to qdos-like filesystem stuff, this may expose bugs, there was one fixed for release that I discovered at last minute.

My plans are a major re-write of the qdos-like file code soon (ish).

Hi Xora,

I downloaded your new update, compiled okay and runs very well, I thought the documentation is good as well.

Well done.

Congrats on the release and a big thank you for maintaining and improving sQLux!

Thanks for the update. I know OS like tyche bigger than the standard ROM that work in the real world don't in emulators but if say the top of the ROM that exceeds the 48K is chopped and put as
SYSROM = tyche48k.rom
ROMIM = tychetop16k.rom
would that work?

Hi

I tried a while back, but it did not run very well.

What is in the 16K in the ROMIM section?

I would use Minerva, much operating system.
