OK thanks for the confirmation that this is probably the best path for what I want to do. I'm fine running the board control software in the VM.
I did notice, as you mention, that the focus of many of the tools is more on accurate preservation of the images for running with an emulator, not just getting at the file contents.
Can the HxC software perform the file extraction? I looked at it and it seemed to be able to convert between image formats, but it didn't seem to "understand" the actual file system structure in the image.
Lastly, is the .scp format better than the .adf one? Does one preserve more information than the other?
Thanks again. This board and the software are really an excellent product at a fair price. I especially like the funny silk screen labeling on the board
