check the images I captured yesterday against the original images

these images are identical to the original images

A note on image naming. I use the '_rn' suffix on the name to note the revolutions parameters, so '_r2' is --revolutions=2, '_r6' is --revolutions=6 and so on. Torfinn (talk) 14:38, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

the FluxEngine creator notified me that he had fixed some bugs, and that ND format 17b floppies was reading fine for him now, so I needed to test that as well. I updated the firmware and software to the latest from the Github repository (master branch), set up a 5.25 inch floppy drive and started testing. Torfinn (talk) 14:23, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

try with --revolutions=2 to see if it improves the reading

and ndfs can list it (I also tested extracting the files and that works too). I went on read more images, some were ok, and some were not. Torfinn (talk) 14:23, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

note - I did not test with the --hd (aka --high-density) option. I should test with that also. Torfinn (talk) 15:54, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
