Anyone have any experience disk imaging 'Lanier' 5.25 floppy disks? Our Mitsumi D509V5 floppy drive attached to a Kryoflux does not recognise the disks. They have multiple index holes, which indicate where the 'hard' sectors start according to this web page: https://cowlark.com/fluxengine/doc/disk-aeslanier.html

@matthewpburgess ahh, I bet that's an issue with the index holes.
It looks like the greaseweazle has an option to "fake" those, so you could still capture:

@foone oh! I forgot we actually have an additional modified drive specifically for flipped disks and I didn’t think to try it out for these disks. Will try that with Kryoflux, but also check out the greaseweazle options
