- Updated S100 Monitor launch code to warn user if console will be directed to S100 bus vs. active on-board UART.
- Updated Duodyne early boot to add a delay to stabilize the boot process. This is temporary and needs to be further investigated.
Added a new driver category for DSKY (Display/Keypad) devices. Existing DSKY devices were converted into drivers ICM and PKD. These devices were previously DSKY and DSKYNG.
This removes substantial code duplication and recovers significant space in romldr and dbgmon.
- Modified the Disk Device function call (DIODEVICE) to provide new attributes related to disk size and removability.
- Leveraged API change to allow handling drive assignment differently depending on ATAPI vs. ATA interface.
- Added ability to enable VGARC and front panel in default config without I/O conflicts (does **not** support having both types of hardware present at the same time).
- Fixed documentation error in issue #345 reported by @MorfeoMatrixx.
- Revamped CTC detection algorithm hoping to handle problem XRBR is having
- Fixed typo in dynamic CPU speed test that caused it to not be properly recorded/reported (credit XRBR)
- Allow use of DEL/RUBOUT keys as backspace in ROM Loader and Debug Monitor
- Tweaks to SURVEY and PORTSWP to improve port detection accuracy and handle Z280 better
- Recover a **lot** of wasted space in dbgmon using a few built-in utility routines instead of entire util.asm
- Improve the (D)evice command in romldr to use the HBIOS routine which is much more complete and saves space
- Phil Summers' ROM Updater has been given an official/permanent place in the Boot Loader menu.
- Rearranged the order and sizing of the modules in the third ROM bank to allow space for above.
- Made a few minor updates to the DSKYng support code.
- DSKYng now has same features as original DSKY including debug monitor
- Added support for MBS LEDs
- Elevated MBS to a platform instead of just a sub-config of SBC
Improved the way that the default drive is assigned in the scenario where you are booting to a ROM-based OS. This should allow removal of either the RAM drive or the ROM drive without causing unexpected consequences.
Adding infrastructure for partition table support. Backward compatible. Not ready for end user usage yet.
Bumped version to 3.1.1 to demarcate this change.
- Disk Catalog document has been added to the Doc directory courtesy of Mykl Orders.
- Loader enhanced to allow switching the console device before booting OS or ROM app.
