AmiCDFS 37.5 CDROM fs, also reads Mac floppy & hd
AmiCDFileSystem is a file system which can read:
- ISO-9660 (w/ RockRidge extensions) and Macintosh HFS CD-ROMs
- Macintosh HFS floppy and hard disks
The ability to read Macintosh floppy and hard disks comes for free, since
they use the same file system used for HFS CD-ROMs.
This program was originally based on AmiCDROM 1.9 by Frank Munkert.
While the file system functions are mostly the original ones, the
packet handling routines have been completely re-written.
This file system can be installed on the Rigid Disk Block (RDB) of an hard
disk to automatically mount a Mac partition (you can even boot from it, if
you manage to put the necessary Amiga system files in it).
The code is reentrant and is shared among multiple instances of the file
system. This means that if you use AmiCDFileSystem on a CD-ROM drive, a
magneto-optical drive, two floppy drives and two hard disk partitions, like
a friend of mine does, only one copy will be loaded instead of six - saving
100K of memory.
