- Short: Patch to make almost any device NSD compliant (plus 64 bit TD)
- Author: heinz@hwg.muc.de
- Uploader: heinz@hwg.muc.de
- Type: util/misc
-
- This is the first public release of NSDPatch. It requires OS 3.1
- and turns almost any Exec device into a device that looks compliant
- to the New Style Devices standard by Amiga Technologies. This will
- do for most users that e.g. can't easily get an NSD upgrade for
- their devices.
-
- It can also be used to provide a fix for broken devices that do not
- support IOERR_NOCMD correctly.
-
- It can also emulate NSD 64 bit behaviour on top of HD_SCSICMD or
- TD64 supporting devices for V43 FastFileSystem compatibility and
- support of >4GB devices and partitions.
-
- Also a tool named NSDQuery is included to check devices for their
- NSD capabilities, courtesy of Angela Schmidt

-
- All in all, it does some pretty nifty and useful things IMHO.
