Hi Tobias,

 Apart from redistributing binaries, everything else seems
 to be explicitely alllowed.

Sorry Tobias, I'll only look at a freeware or open source RAM disk.
SMSQ/E is neither.

If you're interested in a definition of Open Source, you might look here
for example: http://www.opensource.org/docs/osd

It seems so.

If you are able to lay your hand on the Ultrasoft Ultradisk (device name 
UDKx_) you are free to disassemble the code for your own purposes. Martin 
Berndt has given the permissons to all of his written software to me when 
closing Ultrasoft, so I am able to allow it ;-). Unfortunately, I do not 
have a copy (as far as I remember, but I can have a look). This RAMdisk does 
not use DD2.


Cheers...Ralf

Hi Ralf,

thank you very much! I am not yet sure whether I will disassemble a
Ramdisk myself. I think someone had sources, maybe they were also
disassembled.

Subdirectories are not mandatory, I was just wondering wether they exist.

The idea behind my question was to copy an image from a SD card to
ramdisk, then use ramdisk, then copy back. A simple way to get a native
filesystem for SD card while no driver exists yet. I wanted to have a
quick look, but not yet sure wether I will put major work into it.

Thanks again!
Peter

[Ql-Users] Ramdisk

2010-07-28 Thread Peter Graf
Hi all,

I'm looking for a QL Ramdisk with sourcecode available. Any recommendations?

Has there ever been a Ramdisk written in C?
Has there ever been a Ramdisk with directory support?

Thanks,
Peter

Hi Tobias,

thanks.

 Why not have a look in smsq/e sources?

Because it is not allowed to use that code freely, especially not
outside SMSQ/E. Any other ideas?

All the best,
Peter

There are some PD ramdisks on my website's toolkits page, but none 
have sources (although they are short extensions, it might be feasible 
to disassemble them).


I wonder also if the sources of some emulators like QDOS classic or 
uQLx/Qemulator might have one you could look at?

Hi Peter,

Minerva Sources are GPL, it has a Ramdisk.

Hi Dilwyn and Derek,

thank you. QDOS Classic just contains a binary for ramdisk, Qemulator
comes without source. At first glance I can not find ramdisk code in
Minerva. Derek can you tell me the filename?

All the best, Peter

Peter,
where does the SMSQ/E license say that? Looked there but couldn't find 
anything. Apart from redistributing binaries, everything else seems to 
be explicitely alllowed.
