First Update

  • Support for variable block sizes, which means > 32 MB volumes.
  • Includes an updated HFS FST that reports the volume capacity based on the master directory block information.

Note: CFFA2 (often used with MAME) has a 32-MB limit. If you boot off a > 32MB disk image, Finder will offer to initialize the upper half of your disk image.

Initial release for hackfest 2021

limitations:

  • only supports 512-byte blocks (ie, 32MB max volume). There is enough space in the boot block to enable larger block sizes.
  • It seems like the HFS FST gets the device block count (and remembers it) before GS/OS knows what the device block count is. Therefore, there are display issues in Finder related to the volume size, etc. The ProDOS FST calculates its own volume size without using the device block count so nobody noticed this problem before.
