I too have bought a Floppy Emu rev B to use on my Lisa 2, I can make it work on a Macintosh Classic but have the same issue with trying to use it on my Lisa 2/5, I have written to Stephen Chamberlin and he has directed me to this group to see if anyone else is having the same problem, My Lisa is fully working with working 400K floppy drive so the problem would seem to be with the Floppy Emu

It may be different today, but in the past FloppyEmu supported only 512 bytes per block. This is good for Macintosh, but a Lisa needs 520 resp. 532 bytes. These extra bytes ("tags") are used to manage the file system structure (preceding block, next block, ...). I have asked for Lisa/520 byte support in the BMOW comments section some time ago, but Steve saw no need for this. Maybe in the future?
