Как-то маловато в доке информации... То, что там есть, я в общем и так представлял. Меня интересовала точная раскладка отдачи информации о USB-диске по INT 13h в свете спецификации EDD 3.0.
Нам с Вами - мало (документация-то маркетинговая), а для пользователей - вполне интересно:
2.5.8 Emulation Type
Every Mass Storage device that is enumerated by AMIBIOS8 will have an
emulation type setup option. This option specifies the type of emulation
AMIBIOS8 has to provide for the device.
Please note that the device’s formatted type and the emulation type
provided by the BIOS must match for a device to boot properly. If both types
do not match then device’s behavior is undefined. To make sure both types
match, format the device using BIOS INT13h calls after selecting the proper
emulation option in BIOS setup. The FORMAT utility provided by Microsoft®
MS-DOS®, Microsoft® Windows® 95, and Microsoft® Windows® 98 can be
used for this purpose.
2.5.8.1 Auto
AMIBIOS8 auto-detects the current formatted media when this option is selected.
Auto-detection is based on hard coded rules. The following are the rules defined:
- If the block size of the media is greater than 512 bytes then the emulation type
is assumed as CDROM (El Torito formatted)
- If the device has a partition table with more than one partition then the emulation
type is assumed as “Hard Disk”.
- If the device has a partition table with only one partition then the device is emulated
as “Forced FDD” (See below for description about this emulation option).
- All the other devices that do not follow the above rules are assumed as “Floppy Disk”.
2.5.8.3 Forced FDD
This option allows a hard disk image to be connected as a floppy image. This option
works only for drives formatted with FAT12, FAT16 or FAT32. AMIBIOS8 will hide the
partition table and any hidden sectors specified in the partition table. Also AMIBIOS8
will modify the hidden sector field read
Drives formatted with this option may not boot with a non-AMIBIOS.
Цитата:
А вот программка там красивая (которая Visual eBIOS). Поискал - сразу не нашел, хотя у Вимса на форуме искали и у китайцев упоминания есть...
