DOSpackets and VectorPorts...
Posted: Mon Aug 14, 2017 4:45 pm
I've been looking through writing a DOSdriver as part of polymorph and actually have a possibly serious consideration...
When creating and registering a Volume Node for dos.library...
Does there need to be a 1:1 relationship between partition device and volume nodes?
Would access restricting device nodes to dospackets and setting up a single volume node for sharing a pool of device nodes actually be practical ( volume is vectorport based and hosted from the root device instance...)
I'm trying to consider how to merge the volume presence of multiple partitions as a single volume.
NTFS "mountpoint" and Linux "mountpoint" behaviours to redirect from mount locations in a single volume hierarchy as two primary examples...
Would that kind of behaviour be acceptable/workable on AOS4FE+U1 and newer builds?
