It’s been a while since the Nextor 2.1 branch made its first baby steps and also since an updated version was released, but all good things deserve waiting and here’s finally it: the final release of Nextor 2.1.0, ready to be flashed in your favorite device (or configured in your favorite emulator).
Here’s the list of the main changes from the Beta 2 version:
- A new _GETCLUS function call allows to retrieve information about a cluster from a FAT12 or FAT16 drive, such as the FAT sector and position where the entry is located, and the relevant first data sector number. This information may be useful for tools that do low-level drive manipulation such as disk defragmenters/optimizers.
- EMUFILE.COM now uses _GETCLUS to make sure that all the disk image files to emulate are stored across consecutive sectors. Also, a new CONCLUS.COM tool will give you the same information without having to start a disk emulation session.
- Added a new boot key: pressing “N” at boot time disables all the Nextor kernels present. The NEXBOOT.COM tool is updated as well to support this.
- Added UNAPI RAM Helper compatible mapper support routines for accessing mapped RAM by specifying both a segment number and a slot number. The UNAPI discovery procedure is implemented too for these, this means that applications that need these routines to run (e.g. InterNestor Lite) can now be started without having to install anything beforehand.
- A bunch of bugs have been fixed.
Note that for CONCLUS.COM and the new EMUFILE.COM to work, NEXTOR.SYS needs to be upgraded to the new v2.11, so be sure to download it as well.
