-
- This is version 1.1 (second, improved & bugfixed release) of MountDos.
- MountDos reads the entire partition table of an MS-Dos HD (or alike:
- ZIP/JAZZ) connected to the Amiga (either IDE or SCSI). It can (optional)
- do three things:
- - List the contents of the partition table
- - Generate mountlists for the entries in the partition table
- - Automatic mount all partitions in the table which are supported by
- Cross-Dos.
- The device and unit can be specified. Extended partitions are supported.
- Source is included (in 'AmigaE'). Kickstart 37+.

- New in v1.1
- -----------
-
- o bugfixes
- - Left orphaned tempfile to t: if some error occured while mounting
- -> no further 'mountdos mount' were possible. Multiple simultanous
- 'mountdos mount' weren't possible. Fixed to delete the tempfile
- in all error cases and to generate pseudo-random tempfile filename.
- - QUIET-option had a memory leakage. Fixed.
- - Didn't check for success from String(), could have crashed. Fixed.
-
- o improvements
- - Custom error messages for 'No disk in the drive' and
- 'Block len not supported'.
- - The new options (tooltypes):
-
- PREFIX Prefix to add before mount unit name
-
- The names used for generating and mounting are now composed in the form:
- <prefix>MD<unit-number><partition-number>: for dos partitions and
- <prefix>ND<unit-number><partition-number>: for non-dos partitions.
-
- For example in s:user-startup:
-
- ;BEGIN Mount-ZIP
- mountdos blizzppc.device 2 PREFIX "ZIP" MOUNT QUIET
- ;END Mount-ZIP
