[Freedos-devel] re: file to diskette

2004-02-26 Thread Eric Auer

Hi Arkady! To write a diskimage to disk, simply use FreeDOS DISKCOPY.
For Windows, use:
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/distributions/tools/imgtool.zip

RAWRITE is deprecated.

Get diskcopy from dkcp092x.zip at:
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/dos/diskcopy/

The ZIP in which you download ODIN already contains a disk image writing
tool for your convenicene, I think it was DISKCOPY.

You are right, this is not well explained on the beta9rc4 download site,
which tools to use and where to get them.

Eric.

Hi,

This brings a very important question: If I create an image with 
FreeDOS's disckcopy, can I write it back with rawrite? Are they compatible?

 Thank you, right now I already copy file to diskette. Though, at my
taste, in this diskcopy not enough "progress bar".

 May you recomend something?

Yes.  Both use raw images; diskcopy uses int25/int26-style disk access and 
rawrite uses int13-style, as I recall.

-uso.

As long as you don't use compressed images, images that add
a header (such as an executable stub to write the image to
floppy), then all rawrite compatible programs should be
compatible with the images for reading/writing.  That is,
as long as it is just a raw disk image (which I believe is
what diskcopy does, and rawrite/rawread do) then yes it
should be compatible.

I have the same 'taste' as you, I like disk accessing program
reporting activity to me. A brief working percentage or a better
progress bar look excellent.

Rather than sitting there, don't know how long I have to wait. A
progress bar let me know it's working or hang-up.


Rgds,
Johnson.
