[Coco] Access to Double Sided Disks with standard Floppy Drives onthe CoCo?

[Stephen H. Fischer]

Hi,

If you are using a real CoCo then the pokes apply. I had them taped to my disk drive box.

If one side is DECB and the other side is OS-9 files then EmuDisk "may" allow you to select the OS-9 side (If it does not abort ;( ) but how the .dsk file was created does matter.

Are you talking about real CoCo disks on a PC?

If so get John's  emulator and use the Retrieve command.

Jeff may at some time read John's fix for side two and adjusted his version.

I have data on the other side of some of my disks and don't know how to get to it. These are NOT Flippy Disks so accessing them that way is not going to work.
