It is not guaranteed that a disk formatted by EMXP can boot on an EMAX-
1 sampler. This is due to slightly different diskdrive specs used in 
most EMAX-1 (and some EMAX-II) samplers. EMXP uses almost the same 
format parameters as EMX, so if EMX is not helpful I guess EMXP won't 
work for you either.

Note however that in my experience disks formatted by OmniFlop CAN boot 
on an EMAX-1 sampler (after putting an OS on it with EMX). That's 
because OmniFlop uses slightly different format parameters.
For more information on this see message 3281.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
