Installation instructions

This archive contains a 5.25" kryoflux dump, and a 180k single sided 5.25" raw disk image.

An unprotect has been applied to the IMG file.

Important: This is a "booter" disk image. To run it, use an emulator such as MESS, mount the image to the A: drive, and start the PC emulation. Or write the disk to a floppy, insert the floppy in to a computer, and boot from the floppy. You can not run Adventure directly from DOS/Windows.

Copy protection type: Non standard sized sectors on all tracks. The kryoflux image has been tested to work in the PCE emulator when converted to a PSI file.

To write the unprotected image to a disk, format a disk using DOS format, then run the command:

DCOPY W A: S9 MSADVENT.IMG

Note: Because this is a non-dos disk, WinImage will not recognize it.
