Same as above, many thanks?
I also want to ask the experts on making multi-boot disks: why is something that's only 1M in size made as a VFD file instead of an IMG file? If someone doesn't have VPC software, how are they supposed to use it?

Use the REN command to convert it, for example:

REN DOS71.VFD DOS71.IMG

VFD and IMA are pretty much the same format; personally I think just use WinImage and save as.

叫我Jorkin或小p就行,别再叫playboy2925了,跟提犯人似的。

The following is quoted from playboy2925's post at 2003-7-29 13:32:05:

It's not just that they're pretty much the same—they're actually exactly the same.

I noticed this too. Most floppy disk image files can be used just by changing the extension, but some are a bit special and won't work.

Can you use Windows software? If so, then use WinImage.
