Load/Save files using DurexForth CRT

[Vagant1]

Hi,
I would like to use the CRT file with my Ultimate 2+ to speed up loading of the Forth on c64 but I don't know how I could configure the source/destination to read files? The LS command comes with read/write error. Is there any way around this?

Hi! Is this with master or version 4.0.0? You may need to type ”8 device” to choose disk drive. tis 7 feb. 2023 kl. 09:49 skrev Vagant1 ***@***.***>:

Thanks for quick response. I am using Durexforth-v4_0_0.crt from last release. When I try 8 device and then ls I am receiving error: 74, drive not ready,00,00. same issue on Vice.

That means there is no disk inserted in the drive. tis 7 feb. 2023 kl. 10:44 skrev Vagant1 ***@***.***>:

Correct, I am using Ultimate 2+ with my C64 and reading files of the USB stick. Same with Vice. If I use d64 it is working well with no disc but what you saying is with cartridge file i.e. CRT it really needs a disc drive attached?

Have you mounted a .d64 image? If not, it will give the drive not ready error, when trying to list the files. tis 7 feb. 2023 kl. 12:01 skrev Vagant1 ***@***.***>:

Yes, I have no problem with listing and writing files using d64 image - all is working great. The problem is when I try to use the CRT image. Not a major issue but would be helpful - much faster than loading from the image.

[jkotlinski]

I am not sure that I follow. What behavior would you expect from the ”ls” command when no disk image is attached? What should it show? tis 7 feb. 2023 kl. 12:07 skrev Vagant1 ***@***.***>:

It is fine now - sorry. All I need to do is mount the d64 before I run the CRT file i.e. run cartridge. It works fine then.

[Vagant1]

All working fine.

OK, happy to hear it worked out for you!
