In this release

New Toolbox Platforms

BlueSCSI Toolbox is now on 4 platforms: Classic Mac, Amiga, DOS, and NeXT (in pre-release)

See the BlueSCSI Toolbox wiki page for the details.

@stinkerton18 also created a pre-made DOS image ready to boot your SCSI DOS System which you can find on our Images page

iomega ZIP disk support

BlueSCSI now emulates iomega ZIP 100 disks! the new ZP prefix is used. Disk Jockey (thanks @OneGeekArmy !) has already added support for creating these disks (they need to be of an exact size to work) - We've also included blank ZIP images on the Mega drive.

This has been tested on the Roland 808 and Roland/Edirol A6 samplers and Macintosh.

Updated Hardware (Centronics 50)

New version of C50, shorter and with options for voltage regulator @androda

Logging

DebugLogMask now allows you to filter the Debug logs to one device using a mask.
