Title: Need MS DOS Disk Mount Software
Post by: gnown on December 03, 2007, 12:33:37 AM
Hi, I've been away from Amigas for a while now, ever since I sold my A1200 (BIG mistake!). I recently dredged up my old A2000 and am trying to get it all working nicely. My problem is that I have a SCSI CD ROM drive that I can potentially use, but I have no way of getting the CDFS onto the computer (from off my PC). I remember I used to have a nice Amiga program called PC mount which enabled 720K PC formatted DD disks to be read. However, I can't find the software on floppy anywhere so I'm stuck.

Does anyone have this software or similar that they could mail  to me on Amiga floppy? I'm willing to pay a small amount of money for the effort. I live in Australia, by the way.

Cheers!

If you have a 3.1 ROM, then you have 3.1 OS disks which if I recall have CrossDOS or some equivalent on them.  Else, I would say get a 3.1 ROM and the 3.5 CD.  You'll likely need this stuff anyway.

Yep. With AmigaOS 2.1 or higher, just
Code: [Select]
mount PC0: and insert the disk.

Hi,

see http://aminet.net/disk/misc/fat95.readme

"fat95" is a DOS handler to mount and use Win95/98 volumes just as if they were AMIGA volumes."

FAT95 is superior to CrossDos and also works with long file names.


Kind Regards, Michael

This Link might help you:

It describes several ways to transmit software from PC to Amiga without special Software on the Amiga Side.
