Without the proper cable you are sidelined, unless you make your own. BEST and B&C (myAtari) still sell both cables.

Windows of old kill the partitions, I think it was 8.1 or Windows 10 that stopped clobbering the different partitions

Could not download the Rasta Birds on the wires movie though, if you get it let me know what browser worked.

looks like it says the same for the most part. -The first byte in a directory entry simply states whether the entry is used or not (if it holds E5h, it's empty). This is actually how the ERA (file delete) command works: it looks up which directory entry matches the filename it should delete, then places the value E5h in the first byte of that directory entry.-

your stream of consciousness is correct in a way as I feel the same about filling the sectors, it may have had something to do with a particular drive, controller, or cp/m machine combination. It's gnawing away at me as we type. There has to be something about it out there. So long as the project works, such things can be looked into later. @foft, @reifsnyderb 8-inch CP/M floppies came formatted with a filler of E5h. Digital Research formatting tools did this. The value also found its way to Atari ST and Amstrad/Schneider formatted FATs as a result. Some utilities simply put E5h as the first entry in the directory when deleting a file. If I recall any of this correctly

Make sure you are using an Atari Cable and not a PC cable make sure you load the 850 driver no matter the terminal program, a long beeeeep indicate the term program loaded the driver itself already from the 850 The PR connection uses a different driver located on the T:Scope disk etc. Bobterm 1.23 is for emulators not real hardware. Please use 1.21 or one of the 1.22 versions as there are 2 1.22's 1.21 is the best for initial testing. That's about all there is to it. You can describe what you see and here or make a video if need be.

My cursor is in the picture, ignore it this is the driver you need that works with damn near all of the Altera blasters be they chinese knockoff or not.

You have to use the older drivers for the blaster, the newer one operates at the wrong rates.

Looks like he wanted the project to go further and asks for help in github https://github.com/unbibium/atari64/issues

I'd make sure there was no trace/track damage under the LSI chips that were pried out.

Wonders what if any people are still experimenting with this. Anyone using the ROMs instead of the .xex?

if there is a bonding point on both a thinner coating is used for the larger area. It serves as a plane, and a sink. Stability.

ah slow phosphors, I personally avoided models with them like the plague

They keep the best ones and sell the rest on ebay at rarey expensive prices.
