I need to use G64 with VICE when I do some low-level operations on the disk drive but those G64 files are created with c1541, which seem to create a "crystal clean" images with all SYNC marks being exactly 40 bits, everything clearly byte aligned and sector 0 coming out as first sector within the track data. My guess is that this is hardly something what "real" [*] applications of the format can see. * - those disks, which wouldn't work on a D64 (damaged, copy-protected, etc.) but still work on real hardware -- SD!
