<DIV>Finally got round to putting the HDD0.adl image on to the MMC for GoMMC.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Assume there is a ADFS HD Filing System ROM image that I am required to install into the GoMMC Filing Systems.......do you have a copy/ or know where I could find one??</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>When I tried to use one of the ADFSs, it said Disk selected, but then when I attempted *CAT, the tape relay clicked.....???<BR> </DIV>

<DIV>Thanks all for recent replies regarding conversion of PC DFS and TAPE images into ADFS images. However, I did not explain adequately.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>I use GoMMC on a Master computer. I prefer using ADFS to DFS. Also some TAPE images are not available as DFS images from the 'Stairway to Hell' list.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>I thought the quickest way to convert all the downloaded DFS Disc and Tape images, from 'Stairway to Hell', into ADFS Disc images, would obviously use the PC. So I was enquiring if anyone could make a program that could quickl and easily convert multiple DFS/ Tape images into ADFS images. These could then be easily transferred to GoMMC using GoMMC explorer/ GoMMCio.exe.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks for your help.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
