Brian Palmer 70d2e3812d Changes in v1.7 (8/6/2002) (brianp)
- EXT2/EXT3 file system support.
- Does not yet support symbolic links or booting from an EXT2/3 partition.
- Fixed bug in UI code.
- Added '%%' format specifier to printf()-like functions.
- Added functions __udivdi3 & __umoddi3 so that 64-bit division is now supported.
- Changed types BYTE, WORD, DWORD, LONG, ULONG to U8, U16, U32, S32, U32
  so that you know the size of the variable across different
  architectures with different sized words & dwords, etc.
- Types CHAR, UCHAR, PCHAR, PUCHAR, WCHAR, PWCHAR have not been
  changed yet (I haven't decided exactly how I'm going to handle unicode)

(isn't this an awesome commit? ;-) Just look at that list of files)

Directions for patching NTVDM on Windows 2000

1) Start a Command Prompt Window
2) Start Task Manager.  Sort by Name.  If NTVDM.EXE is a task End Process.
3) Execute NTVDMPAT.EXE from this ZIP file.

Notes:
 With no arguments the executable patches both the DLLCACHE (for system file
 protection) and the version in SYSTEM32.  The image is a Win32 executable
 (launching a DJGPP image will require NTVDM, locking the DLL so it can't
 be patched).  It saves the old version into NTVDM.ORI if you want to go
 back.  If you specify arguments on the command line it will patch the
 executables you specify instead of automating the process (if you want to
 do the archives/patches/moves yourself).  Good luck.
