News / Re: How to be useless
Last post by Petari - 27-02-2024, 10:16:10Really pathetic:
Thread at AA
Talk about PSU (in some 33 years old computer), and nobody mentioned need to change electrolyte capacitors. That's elementary.
Then 1 GB partitions - sure that needs BigDOS - more drivers active at once, and lot of programs will not work well. While there is UltraSatan and TOSDOS compatible partitions up to 512 MB size - surely enough for ST(E) SW, and can have 14 of them.

Software / Multiple sections on SD card
Last post by Petari - 24-02-2024, 13:49:44My new project - multiple sections on larger SD cards. It makes possible to use more than just 7 GB (TOS 1.04 and higher) of card's capacity.
YT demonstr.
It needs new drivers, new autoboot installer program and SW capable to write disk image to any loc. of SD card, not only at beginning (as does all Win. SW I saw). I updated my Drive Imager for that:

Last post by Petari - 02-02-2024, 08:14:52And more of shallowness:
BlueSCSI with Mega STE
It seems that some just don't want to learn, to read related details. They using ICD extended driver version from me with Atari Mega STE internal adapter. And are not aware about known limit of 1 GB of that adapter.
Slow folder creation ? Huh, that's less problem. It will be very soon useless, as data is not written properly on disk/SD card. Similar case as what was with MugUK-s thread at atari-forum. He tested some DOS compatible partitions with Atari ST . And it worked well for him - sure, because he did not wrote there much data, and did not go over (again: known) limit of 32 MB. After it data corruption happens - new files file be written to begin of partition, so overwriting what is there.
I have all it explained on pages on my site.
