The terms "single density" and "double density" as used by Commodore are
the same as "double density" and "quad density" as used by almost everyone
else. The tpi specification is the only way to be sure what you have.
I have used both 48tpi and 96tpi on 8050's with no problem. The only
thing that is not compatible is "HD" disks. These have a different
magnetic particle formulation.
Have you checked the error message
