The Dan ][ SD card disk controller

Just downloading the .jar for x86 Linux on my Ubuntu box according to their instructions worked for me.

But generally getting things to work on Linux is a lot easier than MacOS and much, much easier than Windows.

I have the latest version of Java, so I don't understand what the problem is.  I've never really had any problem before.  I guess I'll try Ciderpress II v.107.  It runs fine,  but I can't say I've figured it out.

I disagree -- dependences on linux are unlimted. I prefer old versions of windows but only if for free ;)

Ok, so I received the card, seems to be working great.  I installed the Ethernet connector and connected it to my neytwork.  I can FTP to the SD card with Terminal on the iMac and also Filezilla, and can see the SD card directory.

But I'm a lit

So I installed the Java SDK, and Homebrew.  but it says it cannot access the Applecommander .jar file.  Any ideas?   

Is it a permissions issue or is the file not where it is being looked for or not named what is expected?  It has to be one of those things.  If you look at their installation instructions they give you a small shell script example to run it on MacOS.  You can see from that where it expects the .jar file to be and what it expects the filename to be.  You can either move/rename the file or adjust the script to fix it.

I did all that.  I've given up on Applecommander.  I'm back to Ciderpress II.  Am I correct that VOL20_SingleBlankVol.po on the SD card does not contain ProDos?  And if so, how do I get a copy there?  

I am beginning to understand what I do not understand, "using" Ciderpress II (CP2) to get files onto the SD card. 

Questions:

1.  When CP2 creates a ProDOS disk image, does anything else have to be done before adding disk images to the card (for non-booting)?

2.  Do all images added have to be *.po images?  Or can *.dsk or CP/M images be added to a volume?

3.  Can multiple *.po images be added to one ProDOS volume, to then be selected from the Disk ][ interface?

4.  What is the difference between the SingleBlankVol.po provided with the card and the ProDOS diskimage created by CP2?

If these questions show that I do not know what I am doing, it is because I don't...  Thanks.
