CiderPress v2.4.2 has been released. New features:
- Added support for FocusDrive disks and disk images. The FocusDrive
card allowed IDE drives to be connected to an Apple II, and support
up to 30 partitions.
- Added an option to allow writing to physical disk 0. (For most people,
physical disk 0 is C:, so writing to it is a bad idea. Some BIOSs will
assign physical disk 0 to the first IDE drive even if you're booting
from SATA disks.)
- Under WinXP, use a newer "get disk info" call to get more accurate
sizes for hard drives and CF cards.
My thanks go to Ranger Harke for providing detailed information on the
FocusDrive layout.
CiderPress is shareware, with a $9.95 registration cost. After 30 days
