- Here are some notes on the applications and tools in this folder:
-
-
- The crcpatch tool calculates the crc value. See the example build sequence
- below for
- the invocation sequence. It is run after the declaration ROM file has been
- assembled
- and linked.
-
- The data tool strips off the code 0 segment, and puts the code 1 segment in a
- data
- file, so the data file can be downloaded to a rom burner.
-
- The tjscomm application is a rudimentary data comm program. It can be used to
- download
- data file to a ROM burner.
-
- The GetsInfo application prints out some summary info for cards in certain
- slots. Don't
- worry about the slot 0 error, as future Macintosh II ROMs will contain a slot 0
- sResource.
-
- The SlotMgrTst application exercises the slot manager. It runs continuously,
- and the only way
- to stop it is to bring down and hold down a menu. It has limited usefullness
- but is included
- anyway.
-
-
-
- Here is an example of how the Apple Video ROM Code was built:
-
-
- ## Assemble and link the ROM
- directory "{Decl}TFB-b1:"
- asm -wb -i {AIncludes}nFiles -i {Decl} VideoROM.a
- Link VideoROM.a.o -o videoROM
-
- ### Patch the crc value and convert the code to a data file.
- ### in this case, operate on the linked declaration file (videoROM)
- Tools:crcPatch" videoROM
- Tools:Data" videoROM tfbROM1.d
