IIRC, it's non-existent.  I'm pretty sure that I had to test on real hardware

Oh, that explains it then. :-) I didn't expect it from Aranym but I had a hope for Hatari.

 

If you have something that needs a real floppy, I can test it for you.

If it wont bother you too much, I'm trying to confirm this report: https://github.com/freemint/freemint/issues/117

So all that's needed is to download one of the snapshots and try to format a floppy. There are preconfigured builds with TeraDesk included, so it's really only about unpacking the snapshot to C: and reboot. Feel free to report your findings there.

I'm not able to get the snapshot to work using a GEMDOS drive. Should that work?
