QUTIL v3.34

Floppy IMG derived from archived files. Mount as FLP1 and boot from floppy. Tested in sQLux with Minerva 1.98a1 ROM and 2048 KiB RAM. Device selection, the FLP1 directory and the original loader contents were displayed. Copying, deleting, formatting and writing were not tested. Basic functional check, not a complete test or a test on physical QL hardware. Audio and saving are not certified. The timestamp is that of the IMG in the Working package, not the acquisition date of original media.
