For me it occurs even with >5.2.3. Have you ever been able to get it to work? I suspect that the addition of new drivers has pushed the size of the image over the limit that can be loaded by the floppy loader. Have a look at the size of the image. I bet it's over 128kB. You could edit floppyload.S to load more blocks, though I don't remember if there are other limiting factors on the load size. Perhaps it's time for a patchable floppyload.bin that is tailored to the final size of the image. Increasing the limit regardless of the size of the image slows down everybody and also increases the chance of hitting a bad floppy block. |
