There's a few book I remember either owning or borrowing from the library all those years ago.
I'm not sure. But there are around 133 books altogether. Absolutely amazing collection.Elminster wrote:Are these extra books on top of what is downloadable on the Interweb like those found on 8bs.com ?Adders wrote: I also got a copy of the Acorn Electron World Books collection DVD and it's absolutely brilliant!

Thanks. I will have a look. Some books I am after don't seem to have a scan on the webrichardtoohey wrote:The list of books is here:

Obviously to get the content they'd like you to buy the DVD.
I have a few. Although the C was is locked up in a safe to stop people chopping it uprichardtoohey wrote: I still like the paper versions, though, so slowly collecting the dead wood versions of ones that I want.

Hey Richard, no I didn't know that. So that's my Saturday afternoon taken care ofrichardtoohey wrote:@Adders - did you know the GoSDC also has sideways RAM?
So you can load ROM images e.g. StarMon.
They don't survive reboot, but still good to have.
So I have an SSD with the PRES ABR tools on, and I can do:Code: Select all

Um, yes,Adders wrote:Now to find some rom images

I was just wondering if anyone else was having this problem, or if it is just me. I have been using GoSDC quite happily for some time now. The GoSDC is working well with my electron, however I have just tried adding some new .ssd files to it on my Macbook and am getting the following message:
I type:
sudo ./GoSDCio -d/dev/disk2 -c "" -l
I get:
GoSDCio 0.74 (9 February 2013), Copyright (c) Zeridajh 2004..2013
GoSDCio: fatal error: Flash card catalogue is inconsistent with free pointer
The same message comes up when I try to add a disc as well. TBH I have no idea what this means or what to do. I am using all the same commands as ever, the only thing I have done recently is to upgrade to Yosemite. I do hope it's nothing to do with that!
Any pointers would be very welcome. I can go so far in the Terminal and then I get a bit lost. Quite annoying, I was looking forward to playing Sphinx Adventure!
