Has anyone had any success with the S900 4.0 OS disk provided in the link? I use teledisk, omniflop, etc all the time and this image file doesn’t seem to work for me at all with win98. Perhaps there is some additional info or steps needed to transfer this image. Thanks for any additional thoughts or info. – Jim
I’ll take a look at the floppy images I have. If I recall these were Atari ST images that were ported over for Windows users.
There’s a method of making a floppy using Linux. I’ll find the instructions.
