GREASEWEAZLE NOTE: Keir Fraser "Just watched a really nice tutorial video on Youtube. It actually shows everything step by step, and a lot of it isn't Amiga specific. Impressed!"Greaseweazle v4 reading Amiga disks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQcuRNcjtXg Software Installation Keir Fraser. Greaseweazle is packaged as a Windows executable, hence there are no extra application components to download or install. Simply download the Greaseweazle host software, unzip, and run it in place from a CMD window.Greaseweazle uses Microsoft's usbser.sys device driver. The steps to install the driver depend on your Windows OS version. Windows 10: The correct driver is automatically installed. Windows 7 & 8: The driver must be manually installed as follows:Download and install ZadigConnect Greaseweazle via USBStart ZadigSelect "List all devices" from the Options pull-down menuSelect "Greaseweazle" in the dropdown listSelect "USB Serial (CDC)" as the driverSelect "Install driver" or "Replace driver"From now on Greaseweazle will automatically appear as a COM device (typically COM3). To test correct connection to Greaseweazle hardware: gw info gw read --device=COM3 --drive=B test.adf After installing the Greaseweazle command-line tools, you may be interested in a Windows GUI wrapper.

By extracting the raw flux transitions from a drive, any disk format can be captured and analyzed - PC, Amiga, Amstrad, PDP-11, musical instruments, industrial equipment, and more. The Greaseweazle also supports writing to floppy disks, from a range of image file formats including those commonly used for online preservation (ADF, IPF, DSK, IMG, HFE, ...).
