diskimage.device for OS3.x

Quote:

This is an OS3.x port of the 52.x OS4 diskimage.device (actually based on the
cut down version, hence it is missing some features).

It is not to be confused with Thore Boeckelmann's diskimage.device, since it is
a from scratch development and not based on it in any way, so don't even bother
trying to use his GUI together with this device since it won't work (they are
incompatible in this way). The same mountlists can however be used for both
devices.

In order to mount .hdf files you will probably need to specify the correct
HighCyl value for the .hdf file in questions (FFS2 ignores this value if
LowCyl = 0 so this is not a problem on OS4).

Large files (>=2GB) are supported if and only if the filesystem supports this
as well as the new 64-bit dospackets (like f.e. SFS\2 filesystem).

Requirements:

- 68020+ CPU
- AmigaOS 3.0 or newer

For Device:
- capsimage.device (IPF plugin) - http://softpres.org
- z.library (CISO, DAA, DMG and UIF plugins) - included in archive
- expat.library (DMG plugin) - http://aminet.net/package/util/libs/expat-usr

Note: ATM there is some problems with AOS <= 3.1 and IDFx DOSDrivers (OS3.5 is
untested):
http://utilitybase.com/forum/index.p...=19&topic=1243

For GUI:
- ReAction (OS3.5/3.9)
- AISS v3.1 - http://masonicons.de
- PNG datatype

Supported disk image formats:

- adf
- adz (gzipped adf)
- bin
- cso (Compressed ISO)
- daa
- d64
- dmg
- dms (DiskMaSher)
- hdf (using specially written DOSDrivers)
- img (normal/CloneCD)
- ipf (needs capsimage.device)
- iso
- mdf (Alcohol)
- nrg (Nero)
- toast (same as iso)
- uif

The following formats are supported but untested:
- b5i
- cdi
- pdi
- raw

Also supports compressed images through (if available):

- xadmaster.library
- xpkmaster.library

I'm not that familar with this software, but could this be used to mount a cdrom diskimage of the types listed above on a WB 3.1 based Amiga?

Hi Silver I been able to mount NRG and ISO files I could upload ready to run if thats any help all you have to do is point it to your image.

Retro-Nerd · 28 April 2009, 17:46

Yep, it's a great tool to mount some non-standard ISO CD images on the Amiga.

Bamiga2002 · 20 September 2009, 17:31

To extend this ISO mounting on Amiga further:

I made an ISO image of my Shogo MAD cd to play the game without the real cd. Instead i mounted the ISO file and tried launching Shogo but no luck

. Nothing happens. I tried ISOMount, VirtualCD only works with OS3.5 --> and i have WB3.1 now.

Is there a cd-mounting proggy which works with games like Shogo which requires the cd to be in drive?

zipper · 20 September 2009, 18:56

I think I had no CD when playing it - but don't remember what it required, probably something copied to the HD. Run SnoopDos?

Bamiga2002 · 21 September 2009, 11:00

Forget it, i have it working now

. It was a wrong path in ENV:

Bamiga2002 · 21 September 2009, 14:41

Anyone been able to mount .bin OR .iso files with DiskImage? It crashes on my comp with #8000000A everytime i try...

referring to this.

Could you upload this "readytorun" config please?

Retro1234 · 21 September 2009, 16:36

Hi dude - Ive uploaded the file but not sure it will be any help, at the time I was trying to run CD32 games with diskimage.device and cd.device. File "START" needs editing to point to your ISO - If no help ill have a look at diskimage.device as I havent looked for a while.
:im sure it could mount ISOs

Bamiga2002 · 21 September 2009, 21:38

Thx but no luck with this either. Guess i try the older diskimage-package. But any info on mounting .BIN files with WB3.1 welcome.

Bamiga2002 · 01 October 2009, 19:22

ISOMount works like a charm with ISOs but diskimage.device crashes. Perhaps i'll investigate the mountfile some more...

Bamiga2002 · 13 February 2012, 12:40

After installing WB 3.1 from scratch and trying the newest incarnation of diskimage.device for 68k I have now got it working

. Dunno what caused the crash earlier but now it works!

Remove dos.library by Don Adan until new version which will be fixed.

Amiga1992 · 13 February 2012, 17:00

I have to try this. So fr i only tried xfd file device, which works great for ADFs

I'm not using it, waiting for Don to finish coding on it first

Bamiga2002 · 20 March 2012, 07:38

By installing ClassAct 33 you can use the DiskImageGUI on WB 3.1

spanner · 06 August 2012, 14:43

How do you mount a iso with this,what do i need to put into the shell to mount it,I have put the iso in the DiskImageCtrl GUI ..??

Bamiga2002 · 06 August 2012, 14:45

On top of my head:
"mount ICD0:
MountDiskImage drive ICD0: <nameoftheiso>.iso"

or RTFM

Guys, sorry to resurrect this old thread, but has anyone actually managed to use diskimage device 68k under OS3.9? I've tried the latest version (53.32) and it simply hangs my entire system if I try to mount icd0: - idf0: is working just fine. CDFilesystem in my l: is from 1993 !?! Am I missing something obvious here?
