Subject:  [VOICENWS] SW: Harddisk image converter: DFSee/SVISTA/Virtual PC


From: "Mark Dodel" <madodelDESPAM at ptdprolog.net> 

"If the harddisk-image-file name ends with .VHD, the file will converted
to a format useable by DFSee and SVISTA. New file extension will be .HDD.
Additionaly a .TXT file with geometry data will be created. Else the file
will converted to Virtual PC format (.VHD)

The program will copy geometry data from special block (VPC) or
..SVS/.TXT-file (SVISTA). If that does not work, the program will prompt
the user with reasonable default values.

Notice: The program does not copy images, it alters the original files and
renames thme thereafter..


known problems:

 - currently SVISTA seem to ignore the hard disk geometry.
   create the images binitially by SVISTA.

 - this program only supports raw images,
   not sparse/difference/packed("dynamicly extended") etc..

changes
       
 ­ 2004.07.25
   recompiled with large file support
 
 ­ 2004.09.09
   did not work with large files, since i uses 512 instead of 512.0.."
