Hello everyone,Just rescued this Amiga 1000 from an old barn. It is in fairly rough shape, but it does turn on. The kickstart/workbench 1.2 disk was still in the drive. Although it is a copy, not an official disk.The system turns on and reads the disk, but while loading I get halted at an error that says, "Can't open key file Comm.Keys".The drive doesn't seem to be struggling to read the disk or anything. I figure the disk is corrupt and the file is missing.Does anyone know for sure if that is what is going in, or could this error be the result of something different?
Yeah, I thought it was supposed to be 2 disks as well, however when it is booting the disk, it clearly says kickstart + workbench 1.2.Today I did find a Supradrive 4x4 SCSI interface module in another box among computer stuff. Would it be possible that the disk is trying to get it to boot from an external drive? I'll have to look some more to see if I can find the second half of the Supradrive 4x4.Also when booting without disk, I am greeted with the image to insert disk.At this time, I am unable to type anything as they keyboard is in incredibly bad shape and I am in the process of repairing it. I have just finished desoldering the switches, and now have to service about half of them. I can show you pics if you want to see this horror.
