THE 1541-DOS PACKAGE - Read and write to MS-DOS disks with modified 1541! You have to make a small modification (at least solder one wire and cut one trace on the 1541 circuit board) to the 1541 and download the following files: Name Type Contents ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1541-dos.readme ascii This information 1541-dos.instr ascii Instructions on programs and hardware modification 1541-dos.sfx binary C64 programs in self extracting archive: 1541-reads-dos, 1541-writes-90k 1541-dos.exe binary MS-DOS files in self extracting archive: read90k.com, 1541bloc.gif, 1541-clk.gif crc32a = 2232070709 for "1541-dos.sfx". crc32a = 2075802678 for "1541-reads-dos". crc32a = 1081864822 for "1541-writes-90k". crc32a = 733632503 for "1541-dos.exe". crc32a = 580032901 for "read90k.com". crc32a = 2923235243 for "1541bloc.gif". crc32a = 1099176291 for "1541clk.gif". crc32b = ee693e4d for "1541-dos.sfx" crc32b = a5e2981f for "1541-reads-dos" crc32b = b19dfe8b for "1541-writes-90k" crc32b = d7d43fd6 for "1541-dos.exe" crc32b = 28713c7d for "read90k.com" crc32b = 6db89ffe for "1541bloc.gif" crc32b = 6ce8d08f for "1541clk.gif" If you expect to use this package as your only method of getting files to your C64 you won't have any way to get the program across to begin with. Therefore, the listing of a simple BASIC program to type in has been included in "1541-dos.instr", with which "1541-dos.sfx" can be read for the first time. Alternatively, you may send email to the authors, so that we can arrange sending the programs via snail mail. AUTHORS: The C64 programs and parts of the instructions were written by Richard Hable.
