Crash? Have you tested the trial version?

The alternative version is okay.
What are the differences between the alternative version and the mini version?

If there is an abnormality when using MINITO, or due to hardware reasons, you can try the alternative version MINITO-.ZIP. It does not detect the overall information parameters of the disk, aiming to avoid the abnormality and still display the partitions, but the overall information of the disk will all be 0.

Updates are as follows:
1
The help has been improved to be more concise and clear
2
Before checking the remaining space of the partition, it verifies whether the partition is valid, which has avoided the error messages of DOS

See the first post.

Do I need to provide the backup of the first 63 sectors? Let's see why my computer freezes during operation?

Now the reason why some hard drives freeze when running the standard version is unknown
It has nothing to do with the first 63 sectors, maybe related to the hard drive controller or BIOS or software interference or this program
Use the alternative version

After assembling with AVLGO, you must press Enter. The batch processing cannot be executed (the floppy drive has been removed):

INSERT DISKETTE FOR DRIVE A: AND PRESS ANY KEY WHEN READY

Haha! I'm really helpless about this. How can my program control other programs?

Haha! I can't do anything about that. How can my program control other programs?

The problem occurred during the execution of your modified version program. Other DOS programs have no conflict with AVLGO and no such phenomenon!

Hehe!!!!!

Oh,
This might be a problem caused by using a simulated floppy disk. Will other DOS programs that read and write floppy disks have the same issue?
Also, if it's an issue with my program, I'll simulate the floppy disk again for testing to see where the problem is?
, or add a switch to not detect the floppy drive..

You can try the latest version....

Test result: Still the same!

A couple of days ago, after running your program, it was (need to press Enter twice):
INSERT DISKETTE FOR DRIVE A: AND PRESS ANY KEY WHEN READY

INSERT DISKETTE FOR DRIVE B: AND PRESS ANY KEY WHEN READY

It seems that starting from yesterday, after running your program, it is (need to press Enter four times):
INSERT DISKETTE FOR DRIVE A: AND PRESS ANY KEY WHEN READY

INSERT DISKETTE FOR DRIVE B: AND PRESS ANY KEY WHEN READY

INSERT DISKETTE FOR DRIVE A: AND PRESS ANY KEY WHEN READY

INSERT DISKETTE FOR DRIVE B: AND PRESS ANY KEY WHEN READY

TODISK needs to pass several hurdles like GRUB, AVLGO, syslinux, etc. If it can't pass these hurdles, the use will be greatly restricted.

I agree. If GRUB can't be used, how to use minito? Install a floppy drive? Hehe.

### 1.7.2 Version Testing

When using `minito -p1 -ifs`, an error message will appear if the IFS is not loaded, which will affect the batch processing positioning.

It is suggested not to display the floppy disk when using `minito -pfn`. At the same time, I suggest removing the support for the floppy disk. After all, the floppy drive has been eliminated, and very few people use it. Or add a parameter for the floppy drive to display it.

`minito -d1` is to display the information of disk1. `minito -d` displays:

1 A...

2 disk1...

There are obviously conflicting places here.

Thanks to the author's hard work, the compatibility is getting better and better!

这个应该与grub等无影响，他们只是启动引导、管理。

可能与你启动盘中的驱动有影响。
最好在纯dos下测试问题是否存在。
谢谢！

The original Chinese text in the quote part: "TODISK 最好能过GRUB、AVLGO、syslinux等几关，过不了这几关使用就会大受限制。" translates to: "TODISK should preferably pass through several hurdles like GRUB, AVLGO, syslinux, etc. If it doesn't pass these hurdles, the use will be greatly restricted."

The following text: "这个应该与grub等无影响，他们只是启动引导、管理。

可能与你启动盘中的驱动有影响。
最好在纯dos下测试问题是否存在。
谢谢！" translates to: "This should have no impact with GRUB, etc. They are just boot guiding and managing.

It may be related to the drivers in your boot disk.
It is best to test whether the problem exists in pure DOS.
Thank you!"

See the first post.

The parameter description for -p is too lengthy. It can be further streamlined.

-p?|?|? ?=f,n,z,h,nozh,
Just briefly explain the meaning of each parameter.
For example: f: fat n: ntfs h:hiden z: id 0x00...
It should be差不多 on one screen.
Try to be as concise as possible.

I haven't tested the good software of Gotomsdos yet, I just want to remind that it should be compatible with these boot loading img software.
