Why?#
Why I've written this DOS? I had a BASIC Cassette program. The program consists of two files, ==part1.bas== and ==part2.bas== . The first part initializes a new character-set and the starts the second part via the CLOAD command.
The second part was really large. Because the cassette load take some time, I would like to have a disk version. But with a normal DOS loaded (MyDOS, ATARI DOS 2.x, 3, DOS XL, Turbo DOS, I tried almost all), there was only some byte free memory left. Too less to run the programm.
So I tested serveral game-dos. (btw, thanks to Matthias Reichl for the new GPL Release of MyPicoDos, http://www.horus.com/~hias/atari/ ). But the game-dos I own don't install a "D:" CIO Handler, they just load the file and start it. That is ok for one-part files, but it didn't work with my two-part file.
So I wrote 3SDOS. It's 384 Bytes long and fits into the first 3 bootsectors. With this, the basic-cassette program works! And it has 4k free space.
Limitations:#
- only read operations
- "open file" and "get byte" CIO commands
- only finds files in the first directory sector ($169), so only the first 8 directory entries work
- no checks
- slower that normal dos load, but dos starts very fast!
- maybe buggy
Future development#
- Autoload and Start Basic program in the first Directory entry, for real Basic-Boot-Disks
- keep it in 3 sectors (SD)
Download#
- See end of page for an empty DOS DISK (SD)
FAQ#
- How to write the DOS to a new Disk?
- copy sector 1-3 from a 3SDOS Disk to the new Disk
- or, take the source and write a setup program :-)
