enigma:
- Issues:
- Track 17 Sec 2 misses beginning of header,
- remains of header are visible.
- Track 17 Sec 3 has very short sync 3
- Repair:
- Created Header for sector 2 considering the remaining data for the header trail.
- Used same sync length and fill gcr from sec 1
- Set sync of sec 3 to 31.
- Cause:
- Disk is mastered with only 8 fill bytes in the header/data trail (normal is 10).
- Thus, when writing with 1541 there is not enough space to write a sector back to the original disk and it will overwrite the header of the following sector.
Do NOT write save games to the original disk !
