Well I thought I'd post something for all those filesystem designers out there. I wrote a c++ class to handle disk images(read,writing to and from sectors). I'm using this in the program that will manipulate my rwfs filesystem.

PS. Ignore the rwfs class, that is something I'm writing at the moment for my own program...
Also, you will need to remove the "#include "fs_struct.h" " at the top, again that is rwfs specific.

NOTE In keeping with lba, the first sector is 1 instead of zero

sweet! I may use this soon enough lol

Well first of all is incorrectly defined, a sector should contain 512 bytes (not 511).

Code: Select all

typedef unsigned char sector_t[511];

is incorrectly defined, a sector should contain 512 bytes (not 511).

Arrays start at 0,but for readability maybe I should have that,btw.

'char x[512]' assigns a 512-byte array, indexed 0..511.

Ah, I keep thinking of verilog here, *facepalm. Either way, I changed it.
