- Short: Blizzard PPC libs loaders V1.0.0
- Author: sintonen@iki.fi (Harry "Piru" Sintonen)
- Uploader: sintonen@iki.fi (Harry "Piru" Sintonen)
- Type: util/boot
- Requires: OS 2.04+, Blizzard PPC card
- Version: 1.0.0
-
- loadppclib, load060lib and load040lib are tools that can be used to load
- ppc.library, 68060.library or 68040.library from disk with Blizzard PPC
- cards.
-
- This is handy if you've disabled FlashROM libraries with BPPCFix.
-
- BPPCFix program itself is not included. Use Frank Wille's BPPCFix program
- or BlizKick's BPPCFix & BPPCFix040 modules to disable the FlashROM
- libraries.
-
-
- Features:
-
- - loadppclib is faster than InitPPCLib. InitPPCLib takes 3.3 seconds
- on my 68060 @ 50MHz while loading with loadppclib is almost instant.
- - loadppclib can terminate WarpOS (well, kindof).
- - loadppclib work with new BlizKick-BPPCFix 1.2.
- - easy to use shell commands.
- - full source code (in AmigaE) is included.
-
-
- LOADPPCLIB USAGE
- ----------------
-
- Format: LOADPPCLIB [LIBRARY <name>] [FORCE]
-
- Template: LIBRARY,FORCE/S
-
- Purpose: Load ppc.library to memory with Blizzard PPC
-
- Specification:
-
- LIBRARY argument can be used to specify full path to ppc.library.
- Default is 'libs:ppc.library', but you might want to use some other
- path, like: 'work:mylibs/ppc.library.orig'.
-
- The ppc.library will not be loaded if the library is already in
- memory.
-
- If WarpOS kernel is active the ppc.library will not be installed
- unless you use FORCE option. Note that if you FORCE the ppc.library
- WarpOS will cease to work until system is rebooted.
-
- Also note that correct 680x0.library must have been loaded before
- this program will work.
-
-
- Example1:
-
- 1> LOADPPCLIB
-
- Install the library from 'libs:ppc.library' file. If WarpOS is
- active do nothing.
-
-
- Example2:
-
- 1> LOADPPCLIB work:mylibs/ppc.library.orig FORCE
-
- Install the library from 'work:mylibs/ppc.library.orig' file, even
- if the WarpOS kernel is active. If the WarpOS kernel is active it
- will be terminated.
-
-
- LOAD060LIB USAGE
- ----------------
-
- Format: LOAD060LIB [LIBRARY <name>] [FORCE]
-
- Template: LIBRARY,FORCE/S
-
- Purpose: Load 68060.library to memory with Blizzard PPC
-
- Specification:
-
- LIBRARY argument can be used to specify full path to 68060.library.
- Default is 'libs:68060.library', but you might want to use some other
- path, like: 'work:mylibs/68060.library.orig'.
-
- The 68060.library will not be loaded if the library is already in
- memory.
-
-
- Example:
-
- 1> LOAD060LIB work:mylibs/68060.library.orig
-
- Install the 68060 library from 'work:mylibs/68060.library.orig' file.
-
-
- LOAD040LIB USAGE
- ----------------
-
- Identical to LOAD060LIB except this is for Blizzard PPC cards with
- 68040 CPU.
