I don't think it's so complicated. (When you know nothing you think it's complicated. I used to think so,
but PROPER/MATCHING versions are VERY IMPORTANT)
EVERYTHING HERE IS (KICKSTART 1.2, and WORKBENCH 1.2)
BUT interesting. WHen I put in my FLOPPY to boot my working disk (IT DID NOT WORK). Gave me Errors.
** I GOT WORRIED **
THEN I pulled out my AutoBooting GVP Hard drive CARD, and then
things started working.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This setup is not with ISA-IDE, since I have RLL Hard drive inside Amiga.
But it shows some things that might help you.
I USED TO THINK STARUP-SEQUENCE was something Special
Look nothing here but it does the job to start up
AMIGA WORKBENCH **ONLY **What is important is the FLASH BOOT Bridgeboard Janus Messages at top.
When you run Amiga PC (Notice the VERSION NUMBERS)
The DJMOUNT command is this size to make sure you have same one.
Running DJMOUNT it doesn't give any message (unless problem)
WHAT IS IMPORTANT is check to see the LOGICAL AMIGA side see the JH0: Drive on the Bridgeboard.
It this this JH0: that you will format to make AMIGA PARTITION on SD Card.
RUN the "assign" command, you should get JH0: (If not then problem)
As I mentioned before FIRST PARTION is DOS, 2nd is AMIGA
*** NOW PAY ATTENTION *** THIS WHAT I learned last time
Startup Sequence and Paritions etc doesn't really matter for the FIRST PART (to get JANUS working)
What is important is the
INSTALL of the WORKBENCH DISK with the proper DRIVERSThese get loaded automatically during OS boot, not part of Start-Sequence
*** THAT MESSAGE on Bridgeboard Boot JANUS Handler V.xxx ***
THat come from these files.
THE JANUS.Libarary in EXPANSION (Bridgeboard install disk put that on Workbench)
And the JDISK in DEVS
If you get the right Matching Version like mine, it should work for you.
GOOD LUCK.
