I was running DSK2FILE under System 6.  I've tried writting a DOS 3.3 disk,
as well as those two Wizardry/Tekumel disks I posted the link to.

I've gotten zero errors, though when I try to boot the disks, it comlains it
can't.

Yes, I do hate it.  Will ADT run under System 6?  I'd thought you had to run
a server on the Apple, and use a client on the PC to connect to it via
serial line and send the data over the serial line.  It's been years since I
used it, so I might be totally off on how it works.  One thing I should
probably also take a look at is "Asimov 2.0".
