Consequently, the disk cannot be mounted by a modern operating system (e.g., macOS), because it lacks a proper
|
|
BPB at offset 0x000B.
|
|
|
|
One solution is to use the *--forceBPB* option of the [DiskDump](/modules/diskdump/) utility, which creates a
|
|
mountable disk image with the following boot sector modifications:
|
|
|
|
00000000 eb fe 90 50 43 4a 53 2e 4f 52 47 00 02 02 01 00 |...PCJS.ORG.....|
|
|
00000010 02 70 00 80 02 ff 01 00 08 00 02 00 00 00 00 00 |.p..............|
|
|
00000020 00 00 00 00 00 8a 07 3c 24 74 0c 53 b4 0e bb 07 |.......<$t.S....|
|
|
|
|
The following byte ranges are modified:
|
|
|
|
- 0x0000-0x0002: 2-byte Intel x86 JMP instruction followed by 1-byte x86 NOP
|
|
- 0x0003-0x000A: 8-byte OEM signature string (we use the fake "PCJS.ORG" OEM signature)
|
|
- 0x000B-0x001D: 19-byte BPB describing a 320Kb diskette image with 8 sectors/track and 2 heads
|
|
|
|
Ordinarily, only the 19-byte BPB would be required, but it turns out that macOS won't mount the disk image
|
|
unless the boot sector *also* begins with an Intel x86 JMP instruction. So the *--forceBPB* option updates all
|
|
30 bytes at the beginning of the boot sector, making the disk image mountable, but also rendering it unbootable --
|
|
which is OK if all you want to do is mount the image and copy files from it.
|
|
|
|
Here's a sample command sequence. Note that *two* DiskDump commands are required, because BPB modification
|
|
only happens when converting an IMG file to a JSON file; the second command converts the JSON file back into
|
|
a separate IMG file, preserving the original.
|
|
|
|
diskdump --disk=COMPAQ-DOS111.img --format=json --output=COMPAQ-DOS111-BPB.json
|
|
warning: BPB has been updated

|

|

|
|
mkdir COMPAQ-DOS111
|
|
cp -pr /Volumes/Untitled/ COMPAQ-DOS111

Another curiosity regarding this disk are the BASIC files. **BASIC.COM** and **BASICA.COM** are nothing more than
|
|
tiny programs to load **BASICA.EXE**, a stand-alone version of BASIC that doesn't require any BASIC ROMs. And
|
|
**BASICA.EXE** reports a version number that differs from the DOS version:
