testing HFS+ journal replay against real Apple code

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Vyacheslav,
I was looking for powerpc emulation for a different purpose, and
came upon this collection of ideas. Apple have released
the bare darwin OS (kernel, command-line utils, etc without the Mac OS X
GUI on top) as an installable ISO, I think darwin 8 is roughly equivalent
to Mac OS X 10.4 . But as far as the file system driver is concerned,
it should be sufficient for your needs for HFS+ inter-op.

So if you have a spare computer, you can just install it... 

http://www.opensource.apple.com/static/iso/

I am thinking of making a powerpc instance with PearPC (since I have
other use of that) - apparently it work well enough, but the x86 install
probably can work with an x86 emulator/vmware, etc.

That means you can simulate unclean shutdown, etc by killing the emulator
in the middle of something, etc. and "mount -o loop -t hpfsplus" the image"
should roll the journal, etc, right?
