Data bits are recorded on the
|
|
diskette in precise intervals. For
|
|
the purposes of this discussion, the
|
|
demarcation of these intervals will
|
|
be depicted by a clock bit. Using
|
|
this representation, data written to
|
|
and read back from the diskette takes
|
|
the form shown in Figure 3.2. The
|
|
data pattern shown represents a
|
|
binary value of 101.

program given there will read any

track/sector on an unprotected

diskette into memory, allowing the
|
|
user to examine it or modify the data
|
|
and then, optionally, rewrite it to a

diskette. Using such a program is
|
|
very important when learning about

diskette formats and when fixing

clobbered data.

should match the volume number of the

other tracks), and then begin

execution at $800. INIT will return

to the monitor upon completion. If
|
|
the track can not be formatted for
|
|
some reason (eg. physical damage or
|
|
problems with the disk drive itself)
|
|
a return code is printed. For
