Title: WinUAE Harddrive
Post by: TheMud on October 31, 2009, 07:29:41 PM

Hey,

Im playing around with WinUAE ... I created a hardfile,
but when Amiga OS loads, I cant find any icon on the desktop
for that hardfile...

What am I doing wrong ?

1. make only small HDFs, around 100 MB.
2. *add* the HDF to the list. Only HDFs in the list are used
3. do *not* click on "use RDB mode"

Tell me what you did and I tell you what was wrong. Without any information you cannot expect much help.

Well... :-)

I have set up winUAE and it runs fine... It loads WB3.1 and
works like a charm...

Problem is... The hardfile I've created under Hard Drives dont
get shown on the desktop when WB loads.

So I cant format it and install WB.

Never had this kind of trouble on my Mac with EUAE ... So
im a bit lost :-)

Ive made a hardfile 100mb
made it in SFS

In properties the path is set...

FileSys is blank... ?? ... Shall I enter something there ?

HD COntroller is UAE

Seems like SFS does not work. Use standard file system instead.

Still no hardrive shows up :'( ... Im Depressed now !!!

Do I first need to install additional software on my Vista PC ?

Where I add the harddrive in WinUAE, i point the Path line to my HDF
In the line below where stands FileSys I havent made anything... Is that the
problem ? And if, what shall I do there ?

Im only used to use Emulution on my mac... HEEELPPP!
