FWSI Analogic CD32 Diskdrive issue

[alexh]

Kier put the patched "lowlevel.library" into "the zone" in 2016 (long since gone) send him a PM and ask him to re-upload it?

It was Kier Fraser of FlashFloppy fame. I'm sure you can get him via Facebook or Github

[Keir]

I patched the ROM image directly. Re-zoned. Perhaps lowlevel.library can be extracted, else the patch could be applied straightforwardly to lowlevel.library if someone provides it.

[alexh]

Many thanks

Hello Keir,
Patrik here

Here is the normal lowlevel.library found on the cd game "Flink". This should be the version 40.34

Hope this may help.

PS: It would help if you could change the Version to 41 or above. Otherwise LoadModule will sent an error because this version is already loaded.

The patched library is in the zone. I also included the trivial script which generated the patched library file.

I didn't bump the version number. I think it's in plain text in the library file. Could patch that too if you need.

This would be nice. If i try to use it with loadmodule and the versions are the same then loadmodule won't update it.


By the way, were can i find it in the zone?

'cd32_fwsi_lowlevel_library.zip' in the Zone contains two library files.

I gave it a try and it happens what i wrote. It won't load it because the versions are the same. I tried to change it with an hex editor and changed the version from 40.34 to 45.00 but this changed nothing.



Version says still 40.34

I'll need to investigate how the version is determined.

Sorry to say it but it doens't work too.


If the file called lowlevel_fwsi.library then the version is 45.35 but if i rename it to lowlevel.library then the version changes back to 40.34

"version" probably checks for resident libraries and devices before files. How about if you fully specify the path to the library file ("version Daten:fwsi/lowlevel.library")

It is exact the same result

You'll need someone with more AmigaOS-fu to work that one out I'm afraid.

Thanks for your help. I hope someone else can change it. I don't have the skills.

[alexh]

And you've tried

loadmodule dh1:/fwsi/low_level_fwsi.library

But it says the two modules are identical?
