Tutorial request
« on: May 06, 2007, 12:59:38 AM »
As CF cards seem to be getting popular in replacing internal hard drives for Amiga's, does anyone know of or is able to provide a "How to"?

If it was that simple, I would have done it ages ago!

Oh wait a minute ...

Cheap Chinese 44pin Dual CF card adapter - Check!
128mb CF card for Workbench 3.1 formatted as 'type 7' and bootable - Check!
4GB CF card for WHDLoad images and sundries formatted as 'type 7' - Check!

Atomic batteries to power ... turbines to speed ... DA DA DA DA DA DA DA DA BATMAN!  :-D

w00t! Workbench in less than 2 seconds ... now THATS impressive hehehe

P.S. No patch required ... Used original 3.1 HD Install disc.

So you've now actually booted into a Compact Flash card on the IDE header of an A1200 Desktop? Prehaps you could give us a bit of a detailed tutorial as so far I've only booted into a 2.5" internal hard drive with an A1200 desktop, and then used a CF card as an Amiga formatted hot swappable disk on the PCMCIA slot.



One detailed tutorial, ready and waiting in the Tutorial secion  :-)
