stores more data on disks faster
.description
DiskSpare is a completion or replacement of the trackdisk.device.
It lets you store more data on your disks faster than usual.
For this a custom mfm format is used. -> No online compression !
The capacities are:
- 984K with DD disks (normally 880K)
- 1968K with HD disks (normally 1760K)
Diskspare.device requires Kickstart Version 2.0 or higher.
If you want to test diskspare.device (DSD from now on), simply
click on the 'QuickTest' icon. The script mounts a drive 'DS0:'
on Unit 0 (your DF0: drive) with 984K capacity. To format the
disk, open a shell window and type: 'format drive ds0: name test'
<return>. If you mount any device after 'LoadWB' you need the
shell to format a disk. If you mount DSD during boot, you can
use the Workbench format as for DFX. After formatting, you should
be able to use the disk like any other disks.
