Kandur, be careful with Emudsk. It will corrupt files without giving any signs of it doing so. A couple of us did some testing and about 60% of what it copied was no longer usable.
The wimage programs are the most stable to use.
As a note, create all your disk images in Vcc. I don't know if anything else creates them properly. I know dw4 does not.
