I dug my Set4 out of the closet last week in preparation to sell it, and decided to dump the drive tonight before I put it up for sale. Look for a thread for that in the next week or so. Anyway, I zipped up the drive contents and threw them up on MegaUpload. There's absolutely nothing exciting in the archive, but it's saved nonetheless. Looks like there are assets for a few scratch samples/demos involving the comic character Rat Fink. As with every Dreamcast kit I've ever seen, no 1st_read.bin's or executables in any format, as they were usually just dumped to memory from the host PC and run. The drive just had the GDWorkshop projects and related assets. Enjoy! http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IF6MTLH1 http://segaretro.org/PVR_Viewer - Quick and dirty PVR viewer
Always interesting to dig into the files of a devkit hdd, thanks for that ! Concerning the selling of your set4: seeing the interest for Katana devkits the last weeks/months (cfr the WTB forum), you might be better off by putting it on ebay... Edit: read your post too quickly/without thinking... you're talking about a set4, not a set5... I'm really interested then
No chance... there are no real executable files... (there are two *.bin files, but they are only 640 bytes big, so nothing interesting) Besides, I wonder if an executable made for a set4 could be run at all on a set5...
I tried last night and came up with nothing. Do you have a recommended recovery application I can try to see if it does a better job?
If nothing came up then I doubt there is anything to find. You should have seen something at the least.
