Subject: DFS Imager

Hello and a Merry Christmas to you All,

My appologies if this has been done to death but I'm looking for some 
software to image the numerous DFS (and ADFS but I have that sorted) 
floppies I have lying around. These are old BBC/C & Electron 5.25" 
floppys and although I still have beebs/elks I would prefer not to use 
software such as 'xfer' over a serial cable to a PC/RiscPc.

Anadisk is brilliant at copying disks, but I don't want duplicates of 
the physical media, just images to save to backup media.

I've tried Omniflop on a PC with both a 3.5" & 5.25" attached but it's 
not been at all successful.

I have an A5000 withh a Cumana 5.25" drive attached and can read these 
discs using !DFSreader. What I would like is something that can grab the 
images in such a format that I could restore them should the need arise 
in the future. BBC/Risc OS/Windows based, any would surfice but as I 
say, I cannot get Omniflop to play ball.

Hopefully somebody has been through this already and could pass on their 
knowledge?

Any help/info appreciated.

Cheers,
Mike.
