Too late - I know - but anyway:
Menace HD/Falcon/etc. is now ready for download.

Hi Klaz

Awesome work again

On the STe detection issue, ignore pperror.

Your code works fine, just as ours does. I bet he's buggered his TOS up with one of his asshole "mods" so the cookie jar is fecked. I'm sure as hell not changing 100% tested code (that btw is based on code Evl wrote, and is also confirmed by Leonard/Oxy) because one hungarian cockhead has an STe he's frigged with a soldering iron. As far as I am concerned, if the Cookie Jar is broken you either have an ST(f/m) or your machine is fecked up.

BTW pperror - you insult Leonard, Evl and generations of Atari demo coders with your "slander" (sound familiar, asshat?)

Klaz:

I am currently re-coding ULS from the ground up - please feel free to drop by IRC and discuss anything you feel should be "changed" or added to it, or drop me a PM, or post here - You are without a doubt the most extensive field tester of it we have

What we currently have:

100% pc-rel ULS "core"
Dynamic buffer allocation based on pc-rel address of init routine
*much* faster buffer copy routine for swapping
Caches/16mhz enabled during ULS if available (Possibly BLiTTER if machine has one *undecided*)
Much simpler integration
Search HD for "Hole.prg" and format if it finds it (No, really, thats just a joke hehehe,I'm sure use of Hole.prg will manage that on its own in good time)

Removed much of the "waffle" - I don't consider this version a "hack" and we intend to move forward with ULS rather than ramdisks in the future. (In other words, folks, clean up your auto folder!!)

Yes, quit is a part of it as well.

It's simple enough to take the load address for the stub, add a few bytes on, and after the:

Pea code
move.w #$26,-(a7)
Trap #14

just do

lea 6(a7),a7
clr.l -(a7)
trap #1

I have the metrocross source you sent me, it's provided a lot of inspiration (and knowing it actually does work on the falcon before I "fix" my build is a great comfort - I'm presuming all it misses for "basic" falcon functionality is the moving of the PMMU table) - However the re-write is much more than just fixing these issues and makes using it far easier and cleaner.

Once I get this finished and stable, I'll release ULS3.0 so you can take a peek at it.

anyway, shall we move to the ULS forum for this?   (sorry thorn)

Thats not really useful if your after a 16mhz option

...which we already do.

(Moved to ULS subforum btw!)
