Ah... you haven't tried the new improved Ginsu Executor! (tm) It
slices, it dices, it makes music! And wait - there's more - it can even
mount disk images! :)
(now, seriously...)
I mostly work with E/L, but both versions of Executor support
the MacVolumes option. Under DOS, this is a command line option, while
with Linux it's an environmental variable (DOS might have that too)...
check with executor -help for the exact DOS syntax.
Since the hfv files Executor uses are simply mac volume files, there's
no problem using a copied volume image with Executor (unless there's a header
of some kind - then you need to figure out how long the header is and strip
it out. Apple's disk images for instance have an 84-byte header...)
