2 projects | 15 Dec 2021
As far as I can see Greaseweazle can do anything KryoFlux can. It would be intersting to see a comparation.

Permissions Issue with KryoFlux Package
After some Googling I found the Archivists Guide to KryoFlux. That proved handy. Eventually I found a note about needing to setup a udev rule.

The Space Quest II Master Disk Blunder
I'm not aware of any direct copier, most disk duplicators that were sold to regular people were just a bunch of floppy drives with regular disk copy software.
These days, there is the delightfully named Greaseweazle (https://github.com/keirf/greaseweazle) and similar devices to _read_ disks at a magnetic level, but I'm not sure if there is something to _write_ disks. I don't see any reason why such a thing couldn't exist, I'm just not aware of it.
Tech Tangent has a good in-depth video about imaging disks for archival purposes if interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxsRpMdmlGo

Bit banging a 3.5" Floppy Drive
Take a look at the Greaseweazle https://github.com/keirf/greaseweazle to see what a really high-end solution in this space looks like. It's intended as a from-scratch alternative to the beter known KryoFlux.

These days, there's GreaseWeazle[0], setting the standard.

Backing up a few disks
Any PC floppy drive (they shipped in large numbers, so not expensive or hard to find), connected with GreaseWeazle.
- Is there an easy solution to making copies of a Floppy?
