I'll give them a go, with the ADFFS utility. Booting from a floppy on my A3000 is not an option, as I've got a VIDC Enhancer and needs the module to load, plus the LCDGames module, so I won't be able to see anything. I haven't tried imaging my floppy, but I suspect it'll fail due to the protection (however, I did manage to circumnavigate the protection on EGO: Repton 4, and Archimedes Repton 3 which happens to be the same).
