- Short: Patch for Dave Haynie's DiskSalv 3 (commercial)
- Author: hazy@scala.com (Dave Haynie)
- Uploader: chrisbfd@theorie3.physik.uni-erlangen.de (Christian Bauernfeind)
- Type: biz/patch
-
- This patch introduces the following changes:
-
- The crash-on-exit bug in Version 12.16/12.17 has been eliminated.
-
- The fix-in-place routines have been enhanced. The result of this is
- that directories with problems are much more likely to be fixed,
- rather than eliminated. DiskSalv's ability to deal with various kinds
- of bad blocks linked into the active disk partition is also much
- improved.
-
- New startup and stack extension code solves stack overrun problems
- completely. This may have some small effect on performance, but it
- should eliminate at least half of the problems folks have been having
- with DiskSalv.
-
- A new command option, SKIPDEVS, has been added. This is used to keep
- DiskSalv from examining specific DOS devices.
