Kryoflux software for AmigaOS?

Hi all,

I was looking at the Kryoflux site and it looks like a pretty
nice package for accessing and (maybe) retrieving things from
our old floppy disks.

http://www.kryoflux.com/

Wandering the innertubes, it looks like maybe someone might
have tried to port the Kryoflux software to AmigaOS4.

Anyone know anything? Has there been any luck or progress?

Thanks,

PJS

I thought about having a look at it but I don't know anything about coding USB, and I'm not sure how open the OS4 USB API is.... hence I just stuck to the Catweasel.

And we are grateful that you did stick with the CW as it works a treat under OS4.1 update 6. I love being able to download something off the net on my X1000 and just copy it over to an amiga floppy to be used on my A1000

Thanks again Ian

I've got a CatWeasel around here somewhere too - bought largely
because I thought it might have some "enhanced" properties
for reading old, marginal disks.

After I heard from Jens that one needed to use a peecee to
to access such powers, I lost interest in the Catweasel.

Has the OS4 driver developed better marginal floppy capabilities?

Thanks,

Oh boy, you have missed a lot of development

I tried to drum up some interest to get this ported back at the start but there were no takers

I got one of the first batch with the drive and bits and pieces but never used it yet, was waiting for an AmigaOS port and the year off I'd need to do all my floppies LOL

don't know how you missed the massive thread here dedicated to testing CW on OS4.1 but lucky you can now start enjoying your floppies on you X1000 as well as your classics

I think the Smart thing to do is to send one to Rigo he has the knowledge about USB in's and out's.

I did the initial port of CW4 to AmigaOS4, I have also been eye balling Kryoflux a bit, some times wondering if I should get one or not, just have go at it, but then again, I don't have any DD disk to recover anymore, and know how much work it was get CW4 driver to even work. In the end I got sick of it, and decided it was best to move on. It might be fun to try.

I done some research on USB and I come to conclusion that can't do anything whit just probe the end points and that’s about it, how to send or restive or talk whit USB devices I have no idea.

It's my understanding the software for the KryoFlux is open
source and it's supposed to have been designed for
portability.

Here's the downloads page from the SPS:

Where? I think you are mixing with something else. See below...

The page you are linking to does not deal with KryoFlux software but rather to other piece of software SPS is making (ie its IPF library)

Sorry misread the page, I read this most have skipped something while I was reading.

Quote:
If you want to compile it yourself, get the files that have been modified (same as for 2.3.20) and apply them to the original 2.4a source download.


It was not its the Vice source code not the KryoFlux source code, I guess some one need to contact the company ask nicely.
