-- Linux WBFS Manager Readme --
This is yet another graphic WBFS manager for Linux.
It uses libwbfs from Kwiirk and caristat available at
http://github.com/kwiirk/wbfs/tree/master
=== WARNINGS ===
This might eat all your partitions. I offer no warranty whatsoever. Use at your own risk.
=== USAGE ===
You must have access to your raw block devices. On most systems, this means having to run the program as root (or manually changing device permissions). You may use "sudo"; for example, in Ubuntu you might run the program as:
sudo ./wbfs_gtk
When running the program, the first thing you want to do is open your WBFS partition (or you might want to format one if you don't have it, see below). In the upper left corner of the screen, select the device for your USB hard disk or pendrive and click the green arrow beside it to load it.
(If it shows an error about "bad magic", most likely the device you selected doesn't contain a WBFS partition.)
The program lists devices /dev/hd and /dev/sd, excluding the devices it thinks are mounted (according to /proc/mounts). You may choose do list the mounted devices as well by de-selecting the menu "Tools -> Ignore mounted devices".
The left pane shows information about the loaded WBFS partition (the list of discs and the space usage). The right pane shows your filesystem (so you can select ISO files to add).
The available operations are:
To add an ISO file, go to the directory that contains the ISO and select file and click "Add ISO" (or simply double-click the file).
To extract a disc from the WBFS to an ISO file, select it and click "Extract ISO". The ISO file will be written to the directory selected in the right panel.
To remove a disc from the WBFS, select it and click "Remove Disc".
To format a WBFS partition, select the device and click the menu "Tools -> Initialize WBFS partition".
