Program to fix/recalculate RDB checksums?

[mark_k]

I'm wanting to use a hex editor to manually edit fields in the RDB sectors of a a hard drive image file.

Does any program exist to fix/recalculate the RDB sector checksums?

RDSK is at offset 0, but you can specify a different one for PART, FSHD, LSEG,..

It use gcc __builtin for my convenience but easy to adapt.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#define max_block 65536

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    uint32_t buffer[max_block/4];
    uint32_t checksum=0;
    FILE *fi;

    if ((fi=fopen(argv[1],"rb"))) {
        fseek(fi, atoi(argv[2]), SEEK_SET);
        fread(buffer,1,max_block,fi);

        uint32_t size=__builtin_bswap32(buffer[1]);
        buffer[2]=0;

        while (size)
            checksum+=__builtin_bswap32(buffer[--size]);

        printf("\nchecksum=0x%8X",-checksum);
        fclose(fi);
    };
    return 0;
}
