atari-hd-image(1)

NAME
atari-hd-image - tool for creating a harddisk image for use with Hatari

SYNOPSIS
atari-hd-image size [filename] [partition name] [directory]

DESCRIPTION
Create an ACSI/IDE harddisk image for Hatari with a single Atari compatible DOS partition (using sfdisk, mkdosfs, atari-convert-dir, mcopy and dd).

OPTIONS

size
    Harddisk image size in megabytes, 8-512. 512MB is largest partition size supported by TOS versions before v4.x and by mkdosfs (for Atari compatible partition formatting).

filename
    Name for the harddisk image (default: hd.img)

partition name
    Name for the single partition (default: DOS)

directory
    directory for initial content copied to the image. HINT: use atari-convert-dir tool first, to detect long file names that aren't anymore unique when clipped!

EXAMPLES

16MB 'hd.img' HD image:
    atari-hd-image 16

8MB image with partition named 'TEST', and files from content/:
    atari-hd-image 8 8mb-disk.img TEST content/
