- Change log for eltorito.asm, by Bart Lagerweij
- Jun 25, 2009 - License source code under the MIT license
- Jun 6, 2002 - v1.2
- Eltorito.sys does now also finds the correct driver number for the booted CD-Rom
- on a Dell PC with very buggy BIOS. It does not clear the carry flag after a
- succesfull call to int13/ax=4b01h call. Other PC's also using Phoenix BIOS
- version 1.10 A14, or alike maybe also benefit from this "workaround".
- Mar 9, 2002
- - All read requests are now retried 5 times.
- - Bug fix, had...
- cmp ax, 3FFFh ;Too large?
- ja ReadLBad ;If yes
- seperated from...
- mov ax,es:[bx+18] ;Get number of sectors to read
- mov word ptr [SpecPkt+2],ax
- so, it was checking "wild" ax values...
- - Some cleanup and small changes
- - The tracers give trouble when using SHCD..
- - Reverted proc ReadL back to Rev. 0.15BETA
- Mar 5, 2002
- - Bug fix, when changing CD media some machines would "hang" in the PriVolDesc
- routine.
- - Added printing of TRACER characters to trace the bug above
- - Major cleanup and now using ASCIIZ strings
- May 9, 2001
- - Fixed a "pad devicename with spaces" bug, this only happened when a device
- name was used with less than 8 characters, for example, "MSCD000" became
- "MSCD000("
- - Bug fix, when eltorito.sys was called with invalid command line parameters,
- garbage was printed and sometimes followed by "system halted" that has been
- there since the very first version of eltorito.sys. I know that because I
- had the bug back then. When loading eltorito.sys using a device loader,
- for example "device.com eltorito.sys /test:123" garbage was printed instead
- of "No device name found." "driver not installed".
- Changed the error message to include a "usage" string.
- May 8, 2001
- - If diskemu.bin is loaded eltorito.sys uses the drivenumber from diskemu
- A call is made to "diskemu/Get status" (INT13/AX=5400) and the drivenumber is returned in CL
- This should fix boot problems on Dell PCs (YES!)
- When diskemu.bin is not loaded, eltorito still loops all drive numbers using eltorito calls.
- - Removed "press Escape..."
- - When the Alt-key is pressed (and holded) more info is printed and eltorito.sys halts
