Sorry, a little bit off-topic, but i am somehow proud of it!
I have ordered a new floppy drive at amigastore.eu, my old one was broken, today arrived and now built-in.
It seems to work well and i am happy to own fully working A1200!
I want to become as famous as SimonV and Steffest, you can now send me your undumped floppy disks!

If you were in Greece, I might lend you my few (similar) boxes of disks. But now... nah.

Great.

Don't expect me to give you my disks.

You can lend me a KryoFlux if you have one though. :P

Third post of mine in a row, sorry (but in my defense, two weeks after the first).
Curious, I am confused, are specific people cleaning the (frozen to 25%) dumps?
Someone cares to elaborate what this cleanup consists of?
Am I right in the following?
- Match with TOSEC (and the BS1 collection itself) to find duplicates. (and eliminate?)
- Check for vira. (and clean? or flag and leave as is?)
- Rename to more legible name. (maybe TOSEC style?)

Thanks.

Cleaned part 44 and 45 have been added today

Cleaning consists of
  • Virus removal
  • fixing bad sectors
  • deduplicating
  • renaming

The cleaning is done by 1 person (Denis Lechevalier)
That's why it's taking a while.
So no need to check in ever day :-)

Take the next two weeks to go through the 26 pages of this thread instead of trying to stress 'dlfrsilver' . As we say in French : "patience is the mother of all virtues"

...you've clearly done your job then; well done!!!

Back to planet Earth, so what's with the urgency / badgering every few weeks then?

It took SimonV / Steffest / others some time to initially image all this the hard way... and we are very lucky that this even got uncovered to begin with.

It's now preserved in "original" state; which you already have complete access to

...so going forward, it will take consideringly way more time for everything to be cleaned / fixed / renamed / TOSEC'd / etc.

Just chill out man, patience is a virtue.

...and if you're really that impatient, then the least you could do is try to assist somehow.
