Hfs-ifs is an installable file system for reading/writing Macintosh HFS (Hierarchical File system) media, transparently in OS/2. Be it a floppy disc, CD-ROM or even a hard drive partitions. To get HFS support you need have to install the filter HFS.FLT and program HFS.EXE.

IFS=HFS.IFS <parameters>

Parameters

  • /Q

Prevents the Ifs from displaying the startup logo during the boot.

  • /CACHE:cc

This statement specifies the size (in Kbytes) of the cache. The default is 10% of FREE RAM below 16M. The minimum is 64K and the maximum is 2048K.

  • /CRECL:rr
  • /AUTOCHECK:[+]d
  • /FORCE
  • /QUIET
  • /MAXIOW:n
  • /F:n
  • /N
  • /L
  • CACHE /LAZY:OFF|ON|n /READAHEAD:OFF|ON|n /DISKIDLE:dd /BUFFERIDLE:bb /MAXAGE:mm

Note: If you intend to use HFS CD-ROMs you must place the HFS.IFS line in front of the CDFS.IFS line.

IF you make use of this IFS it must reside in front of the CDFS.IFS there are also needed the commands BASEDEV=HFS.FLT and RUN=C:\HFSDIR\HFS.EXE in the CONFIG.SYS
