That's an interesting SCSI driver signature ("Macintosh_SL"). Do you know how your disk was formatted?

I do have a Power Mac G5 kicking around. I'll try installing Fedora on it and see if I can compile the Swift environment and then my code on it. No promises, though :)

Oh good catch. Sorry. I've fixed it. Computers are hard.

Disk Jockey Jr 2.0.0, the command line version of Disk Jockey, is out. It's been completely revamped and allows you to run (and automate) your disk image creation, analysis and conversion from the command line. And for the first time, it's available for Linux (x86_64 and arm64) in addition to...

v3.1 is out It brings MSA disk image support for the Atari fans (and lets you convert them to regular .ST images), it now displays the geometry of the disk when available (side, track and sector counts, for all supported floppy formats) and a few bug fixes.

I'm quite familiar with both BlueSCSI and ZuluSCSI, their inner workings and their lineage. I'm also in touch with users of Disk Jockey (and BlueSCSI) and I can tell you that there is little to no confusion, even for newbies. It's more important to me to insist on the fact that the device images...

Thank you so much for this, @JDW . And thank you for your generous donations. People like you are the reason I love this community and will keep on trying to contribute positively with my little software projects. 💕

I think you can save one step and have Disk Jockey copy the files directly to your Netatalk server by changing the destination folder in the Settings window (that is also a new feature).

Something else Disk Jockey does now: in addition to disk images, it knows quite a bit about Macintosh ROMs. Drag a ROM file (that you have undoubtedly acquired by perfectly legal means) to any of its windows and it will tell you what machine it comes from (with an icon that matches the computer...

Thanks for the feedback! Regarding the incorrect message, the buttons have moved around since the previous version but the text was not updated. It will be :) More puzzling is your crash when trying to convert the driver. You're not doing anything wrong at all, it seems the background thread...

v3.4 release Disk-O-Matic now understands HFS+ (Mac OS Extended). Revisit your disk images and restore old files from the late Nineties! If you've ever opened a disk image and all you could see was a file named "Where_have_all_my_files_gone?", this was because it was an HFS+ volume wrapped in...

Well the beta is going to have to stay in beta for a while longer because Xcode 15 (which I use) doesn't create correct builds for some older versions of macOS. And I still want to support at least 10.13 High Sierra with Disk Jockey. https://github.com/apple/swift/issues/68163 Thanks @JDW for...

That's super. Glad you like it! Yes, I need to run a little bit of regression testing on previous versions of macOS. Little things have changed in the way interface bits are calculated and it's not always obvious which parts are impacted. Thanks for the heads-up!

Thanks for the test! Are you certain you are using the beta version? It's a separate link, the regular version will not update to it: https://diskjockey.onegeekarmy.eu/files/diskjockeybeta/Disk-Jockey.dmg Also, the error message above is different in the beta version. Your DOS disk works fine...

Thank you :)

I have just posted a beta of Disk Jockey 3. Check out the top post in this thread! It's a huge one. I need a nap.

Yes get in touch in you want to.

1.5 Update You can now partition your device images for BlueSCSI and PiSCSI and create HFS and ProDOS volumes! And also inject existing volume images as new partitions, or install a bootable System 6.0.8 or 7.1 partition. I made a video explaining the partitioner for the Mac version a few...

You'll be glad to know that I've just given the Windows version some love. You can now partition your disk images and create HFS and ProDOS volumes. You can also inject existing volume images or add a bootable System 6.0.8 or 7.1 partition. It's not parity with the Mac version yet. In my...

1.1 Update By popular demand, DJ for Windows now allows the creation of disk images up to 256 GB in size. To enable this, turn on "R.O.N. mode" in the settings window. Do keep in mind that old computers often do not play nice with ridiculously large hard drives so make sure you know what you're...
