Goal: copy contents of Apple diskettes to new mountable media.
So I have a VAXstation 3100, the last machine I have that can read 3.5"
diskettes.
What strategy should I use to take the data from diskettes to result in
a .DMG on a mac that can be mounted by OS-X ?
Can I use LD driver to create a .DMG file the same size as the floppy and:
mount both devices as /FOREIGN and :
BACKUP/PHYSICAL floppy: lda0:
or must I go through a /SAVE intermediate step ?
(I can then FTP the file over to the mac and hopefully mount it.
Anyone else done this ? any "gotchas" I should worry about ?
