       Anyone have any experience disk imaging 'Lanier' 5.25 floppy disks? Our Mitsumi D509V5 floppy drive attached to a Kryoflux does not recognise the disks. They have multiple index holes, which indicate where the 'hard' sectors start according to this web page: https://cowlark.com/fluxengine/doc/disk-aeslanier.html

       @matthewpburgess That page says fluxengine can process them. Could you save them to raw flux transitions with kryoflux, then use fluximage to convert those images to something readable?

       @foone @matthewpburgess you might have also found thishttps://github.com/davidgiven/fluxengine/issues/294from a "Phil Andrews" with similar / overlapping questions.

       @foone Kryoflux says that there is no disk in the drive, so can't capture a raw stream. The only other equipment we have is a Mitsubishi MF504C-327UW 5.25 drive, and greaseweazle and FC5025 floppy controllers. I haven't tested any of this myself, so i'm just going on what my team member has told me they have tried so far.

       @matthewpburgess ahh, I bet that's an issue with the index holes.It looks like the greaseweazle has an option to "fake" those, so you could still capture:https://github.com/keirf/greaseweazle/wiki/Flippy-Disks

       @foone oh! I forgot we actually have an additional modified drive specifically for flipped disks and I didn’t think to try it out for these disks. Will try that with Kryoflux, but also check out the greaseweazle options
