DUST was written in 1998 so it's lightyears old now and can only be used on old PowerPC models which has a built-in disc drive. It also needs an old MacOS (like 9.xx) so it won't run under OSX.

[[Linux Disk Commands]]
Run DUST.
 
   
  +
[[Kernel Options]] to access Atari partitions
Click on "Load a disc" then insert your disc. (If Dust crashes turn off Unmount Disc from the File Menu).
 
 
You will be prompted by a dialog asking for the disc size. DUST tries to determine the size by reading the disc header, but this is not always accurate.. If this doesn't work try experimenting.
 
 
Once the disc has been loaded, click on "Save as .ST" or "Save as .MSA" and choose a filename.
 
 
 
 
'''Saving Disc Images'''
 
 
Format the floppy as a DOS 720k from the finder.
 
 
Run Dust.
 
 
Load the image as either a .ST or .MSA file then click on Save Memory to Floppy. The disc currently in the drive will be ejected.
 
 
Insert the disc you wish to imprint with the image. The image will be saved and the disc should work on a real ST! After saving the disc will be ejected to make sure PC Exchange doesn't try to modify it.
 
 
Note: Due to a limitations of diskdrives DUST can't format discs to anything other than 80tracks/9sectors.
