Hacking unscramble for Mac OS

[SeaHawk22]

I cant seem to get it to work? Any suggestions? I put the file in the same directory as the iso, it opens the terminal and then logs me out. Note it is in iso format but 4 736 698 369 bytes so it needs to be unscrambled.


Thanks

Anyone gotten it to successfully work? I cant send the file over to my windows partition because I formatted it into fat32 and its over the 4 gig max.

you've got to check the endianess of reads and writes. I know how to fix it but I don't have a lot of free time right now.

woops sorry for the double post

why wont this binary execute under any other unix platform??

I need to take an iso and turn into a bunch of smaller files so I can put the archived files on two separate dvds and then I can install it onto my windows partition (I mentioned earlier that I had a fat32 windows partition but I reformatted it in case anyone was wondering.)

Does anyone know of a program that i can do this with?

winrar

use parallel to boot your bootcamp windows from os x, then drag and drop your images. You owe me 2 dvds.

I have a windows bootcamp partition formatted to ntfs. I can run parallels to boot my bootcamp partition and drop the file? I cant get winrar to separate the iso so I hope this works.


Thanks for all your help you guys have been great.

Is it me or does this not help much?

I am still looking for an easy way to separate the iso into smaller files so I can burn them onto two disks and put them on my windows partition.

im not sure but does osx have the terminal command split, u could use that. par2 is also another terminal app you could use

You've got a bunch of options. With Parallels, you can just drag and drop the files to your Windows partition; it supports both FAT32 and NTFS. You could also use any archiving program and split it into multiple archives such as zip, 7zip, rar, etc. You could even try compressing the iso into one file and see if you get it under 4GB.

Azimuthim not sure but does osx have the terminal command split

Yes, /usr/bin/split

I have a partition that I have windows on, i use a program that allows me to choose what OS I want to boot, I think its called refit? Can I instal parallels and run the partition drive from the max os? I was under the impression the mac os would only recognize fat32 not ntfs, but it will when its run through parallels?

Correct, you can write to NTFS through Parallels. And OSX can read NTFS volumes fine but only supports writing to FAT (when referring to "Windows" filesystems, of course).

And why are you using rEFIt? Are you triple-booting?

I had set it up originally to triple boot, but I like being able to choose what OS i want to start. I believe with bootcamp you have to hold down a button or something.

Thanks for the help, I am going to give it a shot. I have been having a heck of time doing a simple compress and burn, files have gotten corrupt, coasters etc..

Good luck!

So apparently the problem is that this isn't working for PPC macs... any updates on this?

 

[Dedale]

I have the same problem.
I have a ppc g4 and the beautiful message "no seed found for recording frame 0" :'(

 

[amemoryoncelost]

I'll just move this up to the top in hopes of getting it recompiled for us PPC users!

Endian problem probably ... If I had a PPC machine around still I'd fix it for you, unfortunately my Amiga is back in England. I don't have any big endian machines around, which is shame.
