IceFileSystem changes:

2.5 (2011-May-17)

- Write locking volume with zero key, could not be unlocked again, fixed.

    Any more documentation on how to install onto a Mac? I'm not quite sure what to do in 'Mounter'?

    Good question.

    First create a MAC partition for IceFS, let its Filesystem type be set to "None", save changes. Start mounter, select the partition and press [Create mountlist] button. Save mountlist in devs:dosdrivers/, give it some name, ICE0 for example.
    Now start C:ED and open the saved file, then change three things:

    ---------------->8-----------------------------

    /*
    * sata.device/2: ICE0 - - unknown - /* Change to ICE2 */
    */

    Device = sata.device
    Unit = 2
    Flags = 0
    Filesystem = L:UnknownFileSystem /* Change to L:IceFilesystem */
    SectorSize = 512
    SectorsPerBlock = 1
    Surfaces = 1
    BlocksPerTrack = 1
    LowCyl = 126
    HighCyl = 625142447
    Reserved = 2
    PreAlloc = 0
    Interleave = 0
    Buffers = 100
    BufMemType = 0
    MaxTransfer = 0x00FFFFFF
    Mask = 0xFFFFFFFE
    DosType = 0x00000000 /* Change to 0x49434502 */
    StackSize = 16384
    Priority = 5
    GlobVec = -1
    Mount = 1

    ----------------8<-----------------------------

    Now save and reboot.

    Unfortunately there seems to be some race condition
    somewhere when the system is automatically mounting the
    doslists in devs:dosdrivers/ which affects IceFS atleast here on peg1/g3/MorphOS2.5, resulting in crash. If i mount the mountlist manually after ambient is up all is well. I also use MorphOS 2.5, so things might be different in 2.7. Anyway, will try and see what can be done about this issue.

    Thanks for that! Got it working on my Powermac, reasonably straightforward.

    Can now use that slightly too big for SFS partition I made! Oopsie!

    It works fine from devs:dosdrivers/ here with later MorphOS and Mac mini, but OTOH I don't have any other mountlists there ;)
