5.25" (MS-)DOS disk dumping

[snc]

I've got some trouble dumping 5,25" MS-DOS disks. I've put them in the drive in a machine, I can boot from them, and the contents read without problems. So, I went to dump those with Kryoflux, with the following result: every other sector dumps just fine, i.e. 0 is good, 1 bad, 2 good, 3 bad, and so forth. This happens with the whole set.

This is the command used: dtc -ftrack -i0 -i4
However, I've toyed with sector sizes, track distances, etc. to no avail. I must be wrong here somewhere... help?

Example:

Code: Select all

For 360 KB disks, add -k2 to your command line.
For 1200 KB disks, add -v360 instead.

Thanks! I was obviously too tired yesterday... Most of my attempts failed with the GUI, and then i had mixed -k2 with some other switches - bad idea.
