chevymad Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 (edited) I use MakeATR. Create a new disk in whatever flavor you need, then insert files to it. Edited December 31, 2023 by chevymad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant get dos 2.5 to see the files i created. the app makeart.exe that i found is a 16 bit and wont run in my 64bit windows os. i found mkatr and compiled it in Linux from here https://github.com/dmsc/mkatr and created a drive with some basic files in it. I have drive 1 as DOS and drive 2 as my image i created with mkatr lsatr shows the BAS files i included onto the ATR file $ dir disk2.atr disk.atr user@magemint:~/Desktop/Share/atari_basic $ lsatr disk2.atr disk2.atr: 720 sectors of 128 bytes, volume name 'DSK_CD51'. 24175 28-08-21 01:59:58 /ADVNTISL.BAS 10669 28-08-21 01:58:24 /BIFFDROP.BAS 5243 28-08-21 01:38:44 /SYNDRUM.BAS 396 28-08-21 01:59:35 /TUBES.BAS but dos 2.5 on the Atari shows nothing on drive 2??

chevymad Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 This is the file I use. I have no idea about dos 2.5 or not. Looks like it just says atari dos and then you choose a density. makeATR.exe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Larry Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 mini-bump... I've always used APE to create ATR's, but it seems like there should be a way to do it internally in Altirra. But I don't see anything in the drop down menus, nor in the HELP. Is there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DjayBee Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Use Altirra's Disk Manager. It can create formatted images and you can copy files between Altirra and you local PC. Only DOS needs to be written to a disk from inside Altirra. @Albert Attaching the below (animated) GIF directly fails and even crashed my Firefox.

tschak909 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Why has absolutely nobody noticed that you can create a new ATR directly inside CONFIG? You guys are making it 50 times harder than you should. Select the appropriate host slot, and then press 'N' for New. 2024-01-21 13-43-44.mp4 -Thom 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
