Any operating system with a .NET runtime should work. Has been tested under Windows, Linux, Mac OS X and FreeBSD. -# Will you implement physical device support for Mac OS X? -No. The Mac OS X kernel severely limits what commands a user application can send to physical devices to a limited list of known commands and to some specific devices. While some people has created kernel extensions enhancing this ability, I don't have the time to create or test them, and also, El Capitan rootless mode has made their usage more complicated than simply running Linux from a live USB. - -# Will you implement physical device support for FreeBSD? -Yes, after Linux and Windows are fully tested. - -# Will you support dumping media? -Yes, that is currently being actively developed and should be ready in 1Q2016. - # Will you support media dump image format XXXX? If you can send me documentation, test images and/or the application that creates them, I will do my best to. -# Will you support browsing filesystem contents? -Yes, but not soon, first I will try to support as much image formats and devices as possible. - # Will you create a graphical interface for DiscImageChef? After all features are implemented (analyze, dump, browse), I will. # Can I use any of your modules? -As long as you comply with the GPL license, yes. I would thank you if you tell me where you're using them. +As long as you comply with the LGPL license, yes. I would thank you if you tell me where you're using them. # Can I use the CICM XML metadata sidecar format in my project? Of course, I invite you to use it extensively and provide me with as much feedback as you can.
