QTRANS
The QTRANS manages Disk Objects on PC (MS-DOS).
Work with raw, .DSK (MV-CPC), .SAD (SimCoupe), and .HDF (Ramsoft HDD) diskimages.
Unpacks files from CP/M and TOS A.2 disks.
Can add one or more files to diskimage.
Can make bootable .SAD (with CPM22SAM.SYS system file).
Can create .HDF harddisk image with IDEDOS partition system.
Can copy system files into IDEDOS boot partitions.
Old versions (before 2004) were only able to create floppy diskimages and didn't use Disk Objects.
Below, in "qtrans???.zip" files you have work compilations. Download the most recent
and try. In case it fails - take some older, perhaps will work better.
No warranty, this is still alpha test version.
If you know Turbo Pascal and can improve the QTRANS, please ask me for sources.
QTRANS examples
- Create IDEDOS (IDEDOS/) sub-partition named ZXVGS (ZXVGS/), with CP/M filesystem (CPM22/), size 32MB (=M32/), with allocation unit of 8kB and directory that takes 4 allocation units (B8D4/), using BIOS procedures on harddisk number 1 (CHS81:) - by copying the file SHELL.V00:
QTRANS a CHS81:IDEDOS/ZXVGS/=M32/CPM22/B8D4/ SHELL.V00
