Title: pc => amiga (problems)
Post by: on November 08, 2002, 07:22:06 AM
i was trying to restore my old software
from cd *.adf to pc file format this works but then i discoverd that i lack a program called crossdos / meshdos.
is there a method / program wich enables me to read 720 kb pc formated  disks in an amiga 2000 ver 2.0 or that i can read amiga formatted disks in a pc so i can exchange files between PC => amiga

thanks in advance

Fat95 (http://de.aminet.net/aminetbin/find?fat95) is a
flesystem for the Amiga to read pc dsks (hard and floppy :-P).  

It might be faster to use a serial transfer.  Get a null modem cable
and install:
twinexpress (http://de.aminet.net/aminetbin/find?twinexpress)
on the pc and Amiga.

the problem is i can not get any thing to the amiga
the machine that has the files is a pc so i need a program or something to get it to amiga format
(this sucks wanted to play with my wb this weekend)
so i can transfer it  :-(

I think you meant messydos (http://ftp.uni-paderborn.de/aminetbin/find?messydos) instead of meshdos. Try it. If you have many files to transfer between the two system it might be worthwhile to get a null-modem cable or even ethernet.

But his A2000 has KS2.0, and thus doesn't have AmigaBASIC... :-(
