Try disabling CPU caches and setting chipset to "Original". Then put in your game and press "Boot".

No you will need to this everytime.  The options will revert back ot original settings after a reboot

You can, but you need to get the adf file to the Amiga first (eg. using CrossDOS) then use a program to copy the image to disk (I think it's adf2disk, can't remember for sure though!)

I always found YADI (http://aminet.net/package/disk/misc/YADI) to be good.
