Title: DMS & ADF - two questions
Post by: woodenddav on July 19, 2004, 01:38:02 AM

Hi all,

I`m new to this forum - this is my first post. I`ll being with two questions which have been bugging me:

1. Is it possible to unpack .dms files to my Amiga's HD? Currently when I run DMS it asks for a floppy in DF0: but I want to unpack to DH0:

2. Is it possible to run .adf files from my A1200's HD? I have moved loads over from my PC, but lack the floppies and the time. I certainly havent heard anything about being able to run them, but it would be very convenient if I could!

Thanks a lot!
Dave

The only way you can do this is to have a DMS image that is AmigaDOS, ie not a NDOS game, then use a fms.device from aminet to mount a virtual disk on the Amiga's HD.  Then you can copy the files to the HD manually.  You can then mount the FFx: drives and have the disks avail if you do not want to use real disks...

Perhaps there's an Amiga port of unadf?

 Hi woodenddav,
What kind of operating system are you running?
Have you an accelerator?
Considered linking the pc to the amiga?



Have you considered getting on the net with your amiga?

See you on the forums...
