Image Writer for Microsoft Windows
|
|
Release 1.0.0 - The "Holy cow, we made a 1.0 Release" release.
|
|
======
|
|
About:
|
|
======
|
|
This utility is used to read and write raw image files to SD and USB memory devices.
|
|
Simply run the utility, point it at your raw image, and then select the
|
|
removable device to write to.
|
|
|
|
This utility can not write CD-ROMs. USB Floppy is NOT supported at this time.
|
|
|
|
Future releases and source code are available on our Sourceforge project:

|
|
|
This program is Beta, and has no warranty. It may eat your files,
|
|
call you names, or explode in a massive shower of code. The authors take
|
|
no responsibility for these possible events.

|
=============
|
|
New Features:
|
|
=============
|
|
Verify Image - Now you can verify an image file with a device. This compares
|
|
the image file to the device, not the device to the image file (i.e. if you
|
|
write a 2G image file to an 8G device, it will only read 2G of the device for
|
|
comparison).
|
|
Additional checksums - Added SHA1 and SHA256 checksums.
|
|
Read Only Allocated Partitions - Option to read only to the end of the defined partition(s). Ex: Write a 2G image to a 32G device, reading it to a new file will only read to the end of
|
|
the defined partition (2G).
|
|
Save last opened folder - The program will now store the last used folder in
|
|
the Windows registry and default to it on next execution.
|
|
Additional language translations (thanks to devoted users for contributing).
