The "XProFile convert ProFile disk image file to X/ProFile CF Card Image Tool" is an AppleScript (requires OSX) for converting other ProFile image files to the format used by the XProFile.
This simplifies loading XPROFILE media with the contents of ProFile images created by other means, such as:
- BLU Hard Disk Dumps
- LisaEM DC42 images
- IDLE and ESProFile "raw" ProFile images
To use, unzip
the attached file, open and copy/paste into a Script Editor document, and run it.
The resulting image can be put onto X/ProFile media (eg. a CF Card) using the "
X/ProFile CF Card Image Tool" AppleScript or some other utility that will overwrite the desired media with the image.
Using Mojave on a 2018 MacMini i7, converting
Alex's LOS Compilation Base.image of a ~50 MB ProFile takes about 2 minutes (if the Log History window is not open). Due to reserving storage for both Even and Odd STARs in one file, such a 50 MB raw format image results in an X/ProFile STAR Type 6 media image about 200 MB.
