   an error on track 1. The drives have passed all diagnostics (Floppy Doctor)   
   and work fine with TRSDOS and LS-DOS so I'm reasonable sure they're OK. Is   
   there a trick to making    
   COPYDISK work? A patch maybe?   
      
   I don't know if it helps but I had similar troubles copying Color Computer   
   disks.   
      
   I wound up formatting them on an old 386 desktop with a 5.25" drive and then   
   copying them on a real Coco.
