Add Apple GCR Support #14

Open philtimmes opened 4 years ago

philtimmes commented 4 years ago

Apple GCR support should be added... It is similar enough to Commodore GCR, except that the sector count does not change and the preamble and sector headers are different.

@philtimmes I've been trying to do this already, but I don't have any Apple formatted floppies with which to use as samples.

philtimmes commented 4 years ago

I can send you some.

Sure. Can you send me a link to somewhere I can download some .rfi captures? Thanks

philtimmes commented 4 years ago

I'm going to make some today... I have to build another BBCFDC

picosonic commented 4 years ago

Have you been able to build a BBCFDC and get some captures yet?

philtimmes commented 4 years ago

Nothing from china yet... seems coronavirus is having an effect on us as well...

philtimmes commented 4 years ago

Should I close this, and re-open when I'm able to send some images?

picosonic commented 4 years ago

No worries, I can get to it when you have something available for me to look at.

I did try processing some AppleSauce .a2r and .woz images but the raw flux formatting is quite different so it would be good to see data captured as .rfi format

picosonic commented 3 years ago

I've obtained some Apple II 5.25" floppy disks today, so will have a go at imaging them

picosonic commented 2 years ago

Hi, just following up on this, were you able to make some RFI images?
