Please disable whole card pass-through when raw disk image is specified

[rokuyama]

For v1.0.6RC2, raw pass-through for the whole SD card is enabled when no disk image file is present, but raw disk image is explicitly specified in zuluscsi.ini, e.g.:

(snip)
[SCSI0]
IMG0 = RAW:2097152:35651583
(snip)

For this example, the whole card is recognized as SCSI1 if no image file is present. As a result, sectors between 2097152 to 35651583 can be accessed both as SCSI0 and SCSI1. This is dangerous behavior.

Therefore, I'd like to propose to disable the whole card pass-through when a raw disk image is explicitly specified in zuluscsi.ini, as done when a image file is present.

This is a bug indeed. I will take a look at it next week.

As a workaround until this is fixed, adding a small dummy image file will disable the automatic fallback.

@PetteriAimonen Thank you for your attention!

Thanks, this actually works around the problem.

@rokuyama thanks for the report, we will address this promptly and release new firmware, hopefully within a day or two. Since effectively all of our existing customer base is using image-based volumes, the severity of this bug is not as bad as it would otherwise be.

@aperezbios Thank you always for your help! Please take your time. This should not be urgent. Also, I will be out during Tuesday to Sunday. I'm sorry in case I cannot test new firmware timely.

@rokuyama This is fixed with the release of firmware version 1.0.7. If you have any further issues once upgrading, let us know.

[rokuyama]

I've confirmed that it has been fixed for firmware v1.0.7. Thank you very much for your kind support!

Great, thanks for the original report, @rokuyama :)
