Disk Series Model 3 #36
TRSDOS 1.3, Single Sided


These images were taken from two Computer News 80 original diskettes.  One was labeled a master disk and one a backup disk.  The DMK files were made with the catweasel and the DSK files were made with READDISK.


NOTE:  There appear to be corrupt files on these disks (see notes below).  It also appears that these corrupt files may also be on the "File Cabinet" disks...so all may not be lost as they may be retrievable from there.  Or, perhaps it's intact on the Model 4 version of disk #36?


m3_36_ba.dmk, m3_36_bb.dmk, m3_36_ba.dsk:

These were made from the "backup" disk.  The catweasel (using CW2DMK) read the disk fine, twice.  However, when trying to load some of the BASIC programs from the disk they appear corrupt.  I verified this by using the disk on a real Model 4, booted under TRSDOS 1.3 in Model III mode.  The READDISK program had issues reading sector 14 of the directory track (track 17).  So something is amis.


m3_36_ma.dmk, m3_36_ma.dsk:

These were made from the "master" disk.  The catweasel (using CW2DMK) read the disk fine.  READDISK also read the disk fine.  However, some of the BASIC programs on the disk appear corrupt.  I verified this by using the disk on a readl Model 4, booted under TRSDOS 1.3 in Model III mode.  Perhaps there's just a problem with the original files.
