HDT 0.3.3 has just been released. This release aims at solving some CLI bugs and adds a some new memory mapping detection. I'd like to thanks Dag Wieers for reporting many CLI bugs & pierre for his work on the memory mapping. Here come the changelog: - A new memory mode Memory items can be reached via the new "memory>" mode. - Memory mapping display Pierre did integrate the e820/e801/e88 memory mapping detection. Under the cli, this adds some few more commands memory> show e820 memory> show e801 memory> show e88 - Cursor is now blinking Under the cli, it make the cursor more visible. Note: This doesn't seems to work under Qemu - Fixing backspace behavior Under the cli, in some cases backspace key was mis-behaving. - Cursor doesn't disappear anymore In some cases, the cursor was disappearing, this is now fixed. - Optimizing help display The help display message was flooding the console. This version improves the screen management.

(The summary information shows this clearly) - The disk partitioning information is still wrong (as I reported before). What happens is that the partitioning information for the second (and third) disk are taken from the first disk. Everything else seems fine ! -- -- dag wieers, dag at wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors]
>You missed the syslinux 3.80 deadline :-(At least, this was intentional. The disklib is having an important bug that prevent to merge upstream. We expect to fix it by 0.3.4 and thus hdt will return upstream for our biggest pleasure.>I noticed the following issues with this release:> - When looking at the PCI devices, every PCI device that has a kernel > module has the module listed twice.

Same for the filesystem detection part. -- Pierre-Alexandre Meyer
