Green Beret on disk from Konami | MSX Resource Center (Page 3/3)

you can see on the picture is KN350

... and cart version states as KN327.

Now, the question is: Are both versions the same or disk version is a special one?
Any extra features?
How much memory is needed for the disk version to work? (as ROM version is a 32K ROM...)

Could anybody make a disk-dump?

you can see sector 0 boot and sector 21 start of rom

sectors 9 to 17 , 27 to 35 , 45 to 53 and next not readable with my old utils "scanner"

Interesting!

About "scanner": try DiskView 2.1, it's quite good (A great Disk viewer/editor for MSX2!)

i tried diskview but can not read sectors of green beret

disk i / o error at first acces

scanner has the advantage of reading the sectors with a special format but only on philips MSX

It's a single sided disk, that's why you can't read the sectors 9-17 in that diskreader. Creating an image should be simple, but you may need some tool that you can force to read single sided disks (or create it yourself).

The disk doesn't seem copy protected, the boot sector is just a very crude rom loader.
