--- NEW NEW NEW --- Ok, the bump from version 0.10 to 1.11 is not of some kind of "great release full of changes" (although it does contain few fixes), but just to make it clear that 0.10 was actually newer than 0.9. With 1.11 there will hopefully be no such confusion. Big rewrite by Matija Nalis is in progress. (note: it no longer requires C++ for utils [as of 0.10]. tests/ is still C++. This is still being ironed out, so please have patience with CVS until release. Thanks. Also note that it does not compile yet, parts which compile are buggy and everything is full of glibc/kernel clashes and remnants of C++. Docs (also remaining of this and other README's) are also completely outdated. tests/ is still C++. It is all being fixed. Feel free to send patches. Thanks for you patience.) please edit include/ums_config.h prior to 'make all' in topdir! This is essential ! Also note that you will need full kernel tree (not just includes) to compile utilities (it needs linux/fs/umsdos/mangle.c) recent information about UMSDOS can be found at http://www.voyager.hr/~mnalis/umsdos/ anonymous CVS access fom these sources may be found at http://cvs.linux.hr/ If you are getting UMSDOS_STAT_DOS errors while umssync-ing, please see a patches there. --- NEW NEW NEW --- This stuff is written by Jacques Gelinas (jacques@solucorp.qc.ca). Comments are welcome. This is the distribution of the UMSDOS file system utilities. There is two directories. util: contain administration tool for umsdos and man page. tests: Contain regression tests for both umsdos and msdos file system To build this distribution, do make all To install (this will put few programs in /sbin) make install To clean object files make clean To test umsdos, here is the sequence I do. cd tests # mount0 assume that drive F: is your floppy B: # I use this trick to do mformat make mount0 utstgen all umount /mnt utstspc all To learn about umsdos (internal) get the file umsdos-x.y-doc.gz from sunsite.unc.edu in pub/Linux/ALPHA/umsdos.
