CMI IIX Disk image files

2010-06-27 by WT

So,

I spent this weekend making an adapter for connecting an 8" drive to a PC. 
Located the necessery powersupplies and hooked it all up to my old 486DX PC 
tunning DOS and Win 3.11.

I can now make diskimages using the nifty program imagedisk. Disks are saved 
as IMD files on to HD and can be retrieved from HD back to 8" disks.

I have a ZIP file with CMI IIx disks as IMD images. Unfortunately they don´t 
unzip. Somethings wrong with the zip-file.

Does anyone else has this zip-file called "all_IIx_disks"  ??

Or am I doing something wrong ? I´m using winrar do unzip.

Thank you very much J-B !

I somehow have missed bookmarking this site.

I don´t think I got the files from this site directly as they are Zipped ( 
though not working ). I found them somewhere else.

Will do some transferring tonight then,

WT
