- This Program is part of the MacDiskImage package (c) Robert Grob 1996,
- which is ShareWare! This program may not be distributed separate from the
- package.
-
- MacIMG is a program for the PC which can Read/Write MS-DOS/Mac 1.44 Mb
- diskimages from/to floppies. It can even function as a disk-copier.
-
- Usage: MACIMG [options] <mode> <drive> <file>
-
- where mode = R or W (Read/Write Disk)
- drive = A: or B:
- file = [your imagefile] (Not on A: or B:)
-
- options:
-
- /m = MacBinary encoded Apple DiskCopy image (No checksum, see docs)
- /r = Raw image (Default)
- /vw = Verify disk writing (mode W only)
-
- /s = Split image in 704K parts (mode R only)
- /sn = Split image in n-bytes parts (mode R only)
- /cn = Copy image-parts to separate disks, drive n (mode R only)
- /d = Delete destination disks (mode R only)
- /dl = Delete destination disks except last one (mode R only)
- /vc = Verify copying to separate disks (mode R only)
-
- /f = Force disk-parameter-table to 1.44 3.5"
- /a = SHAREWARE INFO
-
- Mode: R or W
-
- R Read a floppy to a diskimage-file(<file>). <file> must be on a
- nonfloppy-drive, for example c:.
- W Write a diskimage-file to a floppy. (Important: diskimage-file
- must be in RAW-format)
- drive Seems clear to me. Must be A: or B:
- file Diskimage-file on HardDisk, choose something.
-
-
- Options
-
- m The file is a macbinary encoded Apple Diskcopy image. The image
- is not a 100% image, you need DiskDup+ AND Diskcopy4.2 to make
- it a 100% image. See ShapeShifterSession.
- The converted image can be mounted with mountimage.
- r The file is a RAW image. The file can be mounted as a filedisk
- when used with ShapeShifter.Handy for coverdisks.
- vw When WRITING an image (Mode W) this option will verify the
- writing. You can use MacIMG as a diskcopier!
- s, sn The file will be written in pieces of +- 704 Kbytes or in
- specified number of bytes. In "s" mode: The size of the pieces
- is rounded to the nearest rounded track, so 512*2*18=18432
- bytes.
- cn The splitted pieces will be copied from harddisk to drive n.
- Drive n may be the same as <drive>.(Usually)
- d, dl The files on all the destinationdisks will be deleted before
- the pieces are copied. In "dl" mode: All BUT the last disk will
- be deleted. This makes sense because the third (=last mostly)
- piece is very small, so other "tail" pieces can be fitted on
- one disk. This will save you the amount of needed disks!
-
- vc This option will assure you that the information is copied
- correctly. If an error occurs, please stop MacDiskImage and
- copy the filepart manually ("copy ../v /b") on the disk using
- verify. Don't forget the info file which should be on the first
- disk.
- a If you use it a lot, pay the shareware.
- f This forces the default disk pointer of the PC to a 3.5 1.44 Mb
- drive. This makes sense because some PC's point to a 5.25 1.2
- Mb drive. Thanks to Mark Weinstein for this information.
-
- Normally, a "dir" or "cd" command will point to the correct
- drive. But we are not using those cmds in this proggy.
-
- Have Fun!
