Amiga PD series and usergroup-disks
I had a PD library here in sweden between 1992 and 1997, and I took over all the disks from another library, leaving me with around 10000 disks
Around 1999 I started to archive the disks in DMS-format, I checked now, and there are about 2500 disk-images (well, maybe a little less) that are not released on CD:s, or as complete series in TOSEC. I don't know about the interest in including some of the series in TOSEC (those that are not just Fred Fish or 17bit under a different name). There are many german series, since many series were imported fro germany - as well as some usergroup-disks from the swedish usergroups and some other collections. /RiSe |

Great, I'll do that. I'm almost ready with the series I'm currently archiving, so when that's done I'll upload them all in a big bang.

the use of DMS is potentially a problem for data backup. It is preferable to use more powerful tools and will not alter the data (especially if you do not use the option NOZERO). Try with DiskRipper for example. Anyway good cheer and see you soon |

I'm currently uploading the following PD-series to the EAB-FTP:
ACS, ACS M&M, Agatron, Amiga-Vice, AmigaDTP, Auge 4000 Sounds, Augs, Bavarian, Bel Amiga, Best of PD, BK Soft, Camelot, CCC o, Chemie PD, CSM Slideshow, CSM o, CSM Girls, Entertain, Faug, Flames of Freedom, HCL, JBB Soft modules, Midi PD, Oase, Ollie's Gamedisks, Panorama, Platinum, oshow, Rainer Wolf, RHS, Scandinavian News, Scene PD, Schatztruhe, Sonix CD Player, Superspiele, Thor, Tricom o, UK Aug, Unicornics There's a textfile called archived.txt that explains the contents, and in most cases a textfile in each folder that contains information about the actual contents on the disks. Textfiles are mostly in swedish, but if you're only looking for the name of a program/game/demo and don't need an explanation it can be useful. |

Thank you for sharing, however, some DMS files are problematic

Any specific series you have problems with? I can always do ADF:s instead.. although timeconsuming.
