sounds to me like the floppy image is compressed, maybe its supposed
to be an imz. I don't think memdisk cares about the extension though.
As a troubleshooting step, re-open the image in winimage and save it
as an uncompressed floppy image. For the record Ive used winimage to
compress floppy images and used the result with memdisk many times,
but you need to confirm that the compression isnt causing issues for
you.
