OpenGATE | News: Storage devices and images
Copying files within the filesystem is no challange for the GATE framework.
Therefore the newest UI tool called vbincopy
targets reading and writing
to storage devices.
Loading image files and writing them to SD cards
is the beginning of each system-on-chip experience like with the
Raspberry Pi or similar devices.
vbincopy
is a graphical tool to access low-level features of the operating
system to directly read from and write to hard disks, SD cards, floppy
drives, volumes, partitions and read-only media like CDs or DVDs.
WARNING: Writing directly to storage devices may erase all your data and cause system malfunctions. Use this tool with care and only if you have the required knowledge about low-level storage operations.
Like for the Unix tool
dd
there is no un-do function to restore a broken system.
