LAN/BBA query & SDISO source code

[Megatron-UK]

Hi,

Is the source for SDISO available to the public? I was thinking that if we were to take the disk command redirection of SDISO and pair it with the LAN/BBA, it could be used to launch disk images from across the network; although the latency would be higher than the serial port, actual transfer speeds would be significantly higher (potentially in the realms of several megabytes per second).

I'm not sure whether the LAN/BBA hardware is initialised in Dreamshell though - you wouldn't need to have a full TCP/IP stack in order to use it, as you could simply use raw ethernet frames instead - the actual logic and sector reading could be handled by a process on the remote host.

If the source for SDISO is available, and the LAN/BBA is initialised and accessible within Dreamshell, this is something I'd love to have a go at!
