From Yuri Nazarenko To All 22 January 2002

Hello everyone!

there is a screw, on the screw there are partitions created by scorpion (smuc-pylit), in the partitions
there is an image of disks.
you need to copy these images to the trdshniki on the PC. Has anyone encountered
this? help, plz...
and if it’s not difficult, send this letter to zx.spectrum, I have access

I see you as if in reality, Yuri!

on *01/22/02* *20:55:16* you wrote a message to *All*
about *"scorp hdd -> pc hdd"*.

YN> partitions there is a disk image. you need to copy these images into the trdshniki on

I have. - I got out of it like this: I copied the MFS partition with the
Norton-Ghost program on the offtopic. I received a fillet with all Scorpov's partitions - 3
TRD-partitions with 32 disks each and 4 is-dos partitions.

and then I dashed off a program in VB with which all these partitions were picked out.
then they looked great with FAR with plugins (TRD for TrDOs and IMG for
IsDos).

however, this program in VB died together. with all the collapsed sections on
pts before NG ;(

perhaps there are alternatives...

All the best, siril.4d.perm.ru.

We haven’t encountered this, but the idea has been around for a long time.
In principle, it would be easier to write a utility in offtopic that would understand
MFS (partitions created by Scorp).
But I don’t have enough experience in programming in it (offtopic).
So you need to use Scorp (a utility that which would understand FAT).
But there is no such utility.
No one has written it yet.
But never mind, someday I will write it.
But not soon...

In general, in this case I can only recommend using
floppy disks. And the utility will really be written by me, because now
when spektrumists start installing SD-roms, this problem (creating SD-roms in
MS-DOS) is becoming more relevant than ever.
