MapsTool 1.1 (02.02.2015)
Updated sd_to_hdd_fw.iso. Now the firmware will try to only delete
the previous maps instead of formatting the entire Maps Partition. This will
prevent loosing the original firmware speech resources, allowing you to
change the RNS's language after you copy the Maps to HDD from SD Card using
the tool. Note that this will only work for a fresh firmware (either you
have never used the Maps Tool before to copy the Maps from the SD Card to
RNS HDD or you have restored the original firmware after using the Maps
Tool.

MapsTool 0.9b (21.12.2014)
Possible fix for Eastern Europe Maps v12 (CD_8196) - The CD_8196.iso
file that is available on the Internet does not fully comply with the
ISO9660 level 2 standard. When the tool opens it, some files and folders are
truncated to a maximum length of 8.3 chars. I have provided a possible fix
for this but there is no guarantee. For v12 West maps the ISO is OK and
should work.
