Is it possible to conver a DSK image to MSDOS format, then I can copy the files onto a compacy flash card ? The only way I can figure is to copy the DSK image to floppy disk, then copy it over to my CF card using my MSX. I somewhat long process when I gave a lot of images to copy.
Any ideas ?

It looks like you want to extract the files from a disk image here? I'm not sure if there are any tools for that on MSX.

BiFi, that is exactly what I want to do. I want to put the entire MSXmania collection on to a CF card, each of the 'disks' in a subdirectory, then a autoexec.bas program to load the appropriate disk. If I transfer the disks manually it will take me hours, especially when my PC is downstairs and my MSX is upstairs, perhaps I need the exercise!

It's possible to extract disk images on PC with, for example, WinImage. You can easily and quickly transfer data from PC to MSX (and vice versa) using a USB CompactFlash reader.

Yes - use a disk drive and put the image on to floppy disk, then copy the floppy disk to the CF card. OR you could copy the image to a CF card, then use RDDSK to extract the files from the image and place them in a directory.
The task takes a lot longer than doing it on the PC

I seem to remember WRDSK and RDDSK had MSX versions too.
