Hi people! How are you?
I have an amiga 600 from the childhood of my father.
Began to buy an new floppy drive, the older was not reading right.
Now decided to transfer adf files to amiga. So i bought an ADAPCMCFL from amigakit.com with the PCMCIA adapter and of course an 2GB Kingston Compact Flash Card.
Plugged everything, put the boot disk and run to workbench. After putting the PCMCIA doesn't appear any image of the compactflash in the workbench.
My workbench it's version 3.0
Kickstart-Rom it's a 2.05 (37.350) that i bought from Vesalia Computer.
My question it's:
- Why doesn't appear any image of compactflash?
- Could be the compatiblity of workbench and the kickstart?
- Could be the Kingston compact flash?
Please help me, i need play some games on amiga. (http://eab.abime.net/images/smilies/banghead.gif)(http://eab.abime.net/images/smilies/banghead.gif)(http://eab.abime.net/images/smilies/banghead.gif)(http://eab.abime.net/images/smilies/banghead.gif)
I have spend a lot of money to put this thing working. Thank you and regards.

With Kickstart 2.05, you should not use a Workbench of the 3.x variant as this can cause erratic behaviour. 2.0 and 2.1 should work fine, though.
If you want to use Workbench 3.x (both Kickstart & Workbench 3.1 have some nice bugfixes & speedups compared to 3.0), you should put in a Kickstart 3.1 ROM chip.

ok thank you. I will buy an older version of workbench and try it.
Anyone have more ideas or sugestions?

Jiffy i only found on ebay two versions of workbench!
The 2.04 and the 2.05. It's that ok?
Thanks

People the solution it's the compact flash.
After i receive the the new compact flash SANDISK ULTRA II 1GB the problem was resolved. So, don't buy any compact flash from KINGSTON to work with amiga 600. For me doesn't work.
I now have another problem regarding to EASYADF.
Thanks for you help.
Regards.
