Re: Does MAME support raw floppy disk images?

This is good advice - I did this and it does work. What I was trying to do is find good/working software for a real Kaypro 4/83 and hoping MAME could help me do that. One issue is trying to get images in the right format and without errors. In this case, MAME rejects the TD0 file I downloaded, but I finally found a tool called samdisk that when converting it to an IMD, it will work under MAME.

I am really surprised though not to see a raw file format, that would have been helpful yesterday.
