Problem With CP/M Plus Diskettes
#2
SuperCard Pro knows absolutely nothing about disk formats.  It is a flux imager/copier, so it "handles" every type of disk possible.  I responded to your email.  Send me a disk image and I can tell you what the issue is.  Since you are using HxC to convert the disk and other non-CP/M disks work this way, I would think that the issue is that HxC is not doing the conversion correctly.  It would have to know that it is a CP/M variable sector format when doing the conversion and I am not sure if Jeff supports that.  I do know that .dsk and .dmk formats are not variable sector formats.

SuperCard Pro writes entire tracks of flux data.  It doesn't write any disk "format" because it doesn't handle data that way.  You should be able to take an original CP/M disk, dump it as an image file (.scp) and then write it back out to another disk, and boot that disk.  I don't have any control of what any conversion software does.  SuperCard Pro accepts only flux transitions and those have to be right in order to have a working disk.
