The footprint should be identical on multiple runs. Do you also get other values for the footprint? Do you get any of these values multiple times? > After running cbmctrl detect two or three times it stops responding. So we have a communication problem.

How big is the rom2031.dump file after each run? Please run it multiple times, and look at the sizes. Do they vary? > Has anyone had any luck reading disks with this drive using ZoomFloppy? The 2031 should be the "best" drive for IEEE experiments with the ZF, because the 2031 is very similar to the 1540/1541. All other drives differ much more. Thus, I would be surprised if these a generic problems that happen to all people. I would check your IEEE cable. How long is it? Is it a (unshielded) ribbon cable, or a shielded cable?
