The alpha-version currently supports Amiga disks only, and it runs on DOS or in a DOS box of Win95/98. For easy porting to other operating systems, and for educational purposes, the source is included.

Catweasel ISA: Image-write utility : Comment 8 of 16 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Joe Torre on 12-Apr-2002 16:16 GMT | Awesome! ...and source code too!
I bought yet another motherboard with an ISA slot: It sports an Athlon 1.4Ghz/DDR266. Thats not bleeding edge, but definately "modern".
I use the Catweasel with pleasure.
I need an ISA slot for my Altera LP6 programming card.
Altera knows a thing or two about programable chips that interface to PCI ;-). I'm sure they've had thousands of _paid_customer_ requests for a PCI version of the LP6. Yet Altera has not bothered to convert the ~$600 card/design to PCI for over 8 years now.
Comparison shopping is often the basis of judging the value of hardware, and just about every computer user has either been taunted, or has taunted others with the following (smartass) mantra: "But you can get an X, from mailorder shop Y, for price Z!". Therefore you can get an older motherboard with ISA for less than Z! YMMV ;-)
The HW dealers soldout of Catweasels at AmiExpo (and Mr. Hardwares Mouse adapters too). Hopefully that new Amiga floppy interface PCI card from down-under will be finished and forsale soon.
(That new mouse/joystick adapter from Mr. Hardware sold-out also.) |
