I think I will get that too, and a CF card as well. Of course, that will
still leave me with having to find a way to partition it for use with my
Focus Card.
Why was that Focus Utility only made for the //gs? One would think there
should be something for the //e? Oh well.
I asked the same question of Tony Diaz in the 1990's. It seemed
strange to offer a drive for the //e that couldn't be maintained
on the //e.
Exactly. That was a bad business decision.
I offered to convert it to run on the //e if he had the source. He sent
it and, when I took a look, I found something so bloated and foreign to
the //e that I would have had to start from scratch.
Since 99% of the voluminous code is just managing the quirky
GUI interface, and the only end result is writing out a block
containing the partition table, it shouldn't be too hard to do
on a //e. But at the time, I recall having a hard time even
*finding* the structure and content of the partition table!
(I should try to find those files and see if I can figure it
out now...)
Maybe you can try again and successfully port it to the //e? :)
