 Now I'm busy with this list, let me ask a question too :)

last week I bought a Catweasel card to transfer data between my pc<->64, and
transferring disks to the pc is very fast and reliable. But transferring
stuff back to 5.25 is not.

it looks like only part of the disk is actually written. Sometimes the
directory is there, but when you try to load, the file is corrupt (I made a
testfile for the Pinball Dreams game, which should load from $0801-$4xxx
somewhere ;) but instead it loads from $0fe7 to $11xx)..

I'm using the new Catweasel MKiii and windowsXP, using imagetool to transfer
disks. My drive is a Matshushita one.

anyone got experience with this? 

(btw, I noticed especially the first number of tracks are not written, it
looks (to me) like the drive needs to spin up, but the software is already
trying to write, and thus fails the first couple of tracks)

Hi,

maybe I still have some unused chips lying around, which I'm never going
to
use. Let me check my stock tonite..

Hi!,

Probably yes. But you'd need 8 4416s for the expansion; that case, I'm
sure 
you're better off with 8 4164 chips. Those are much easier to find
anyway.
