I am at wits end. I am trying to create a 1680 floppy for using Bering. I've done this before. I created several for eigerstien.If you've done this before, using the same machine, same floppy drive, etc, then it's almost certainly a bad set of floppies. I once had a run of 11 bad floppies in a row -- seems there's something about the larger disk format that just makes some floppies unhappy. My solution was to stop trying to reuse the old floppies that I dug out from under desks and behind radiators and just buy a fresh box of them -- didn't have any problems with those.
Try it with a fresh disk, if that doesn't work, try it in a different machine with a fresh disk. . . though from the sound of it, it sure sounds like a couple of flaky floppies -- and generally, if the floppy's bad, it's bad. You can't just re-run superformat or fdformat and hope that it will work the next time around.
good luck,
