DEC Rainbow RX50 disks MS-DOS/FAT file system support about fluxengine HOT 9 OPEN

Yes, should be --- it just depends on how quirky the format is. The first thing to try is just adding filesystem.fatfs= to the custom configuration (the button to the right of the format dropdown). That'll use the default settings.

Thanks for the quick reply. I've added that line to the config but get this error when clicking Browse files, "can't set this config value type."

from fluxengine.

Urgh.

Try filesystem.fatfs={}. It's been a while since I touched this stuff...

from fluxengine.

Sadly, getting the same error with that too

Great, looks like I broke that.

If you create a text file containing:

filesystem { fatfs {} }

...save it as fat.textpb in the current directory, then you should be able to put fat.textpb in the extra config and it'll load the settings from that file.

The other error is gone but now I am back to: "no filesystem configured" when attempting to browse files. I have the textpb file in the directory with the GUI and am launching it from there. Is that the correct spot for that?

from fluxengine.

Sorry for the delay, been doing bugfixes...

Also, I'm afraid I misled you. I changed the way this works and then forgot about it. Try:

filesystem.type=FATFS

...in the extra config box. You don't need any files.

from fluxengine.

No worries! Just tried that out and get the error "Invalid Filesystem" when I click Browse files. Assuming that's not a config issue, this might be progress?

from fluxengine.

I'm curious if you've made any progress on this? No worries if not, just figuring out if I should go attempt some of the other methods I've seen to extract files from these disk images
