Who’s your daddy

So, a few days ago I showed file reading working with my FAT driver. Today, I give you writing. It took a little bit of tweaking to get right; I made a few mistakes here and there. I’m not 100% confident in it yet, but it’s at least working for the simple case – opening… Read more

Paintball on TV

So here I am flicking channels (all four of them) while I’m working on ENP, and what happens to be on but none other than Moama paintball. :) Awesome. It was one of those numerous holiday programs… Getaway or something I think. Whatever’s on channel 9 at 5:30pm on a Saturday. Anyway, I now know… Read more

D’oh, and I just bought another hard disk!

I decided to kill the old eDrive I had on one of my portable disks, since from memory I created it under Panther anyway, and with all my spare hard disks and so forth I don’t think it gives me any advantage. Anyway, TechTool Pro originally created the eDrive by splicing it into an existing… Read more
