Problem with 360k drives
#5
The Atari 400/800 mode is broken. This is a special case because the Atari 400/800 disks are typically single sided. I made a change to correct something else with this format and it broke the 48TPI mode. To fix this it would require a re-write of quite a bit of code. Instead of doing that I am going to release an all new version of the disk copier/imager that is track/head based instead of disk type based. This way you could imagine or copy just a single side of a disk (top or bottom). It's still compatible with the image file format though.

Until this has been released you can use the C64 mode to copy/image disks successfully with 48TPI drives. The disk format really just determines the max tracks, number of heads, etc... and nothing to do with the actual copying. Flux is flux, no matter what disk is there.
