recreating amiga OS
« on: March 12, 2012, 02:31:42 PM »
I am the curator of a museum of computers, I have an Amiga 500 and Amiga 2000 without an operating system, only with two game discs. I would like to know how to recreate the disks via a PC, I'd like to use them not as gaming machines.
I'm completely unskilled about amiga.

There are means and ways to getting disks but this may mean tracking them down either through Ebay or communicating with an Amiga user that may help. Given that you are a curator of a museum maybe you could tell us a bit more about the museum and how many machines you have. I have like hundreds of computers and all my stuff is online to see. I also have many many disks with the information on. When you collect computers seriously you do get the disks with what you collect. Just intrigued by the size of you museum.
 
By the way I never would copy disks for anyone but in the interests of maintaining the Amiga legacy I would certainly help with originals if I knew the request was genuine.
 
You also may want to check this link out... not me I should add.

All the best.

Yes you're right, but the amiga donor wasn't an amiga user, he only collected hardware!
My museum is very very tiny, it has academic purposes and... no funds!!!
you can visit it virtually at
http://museo.dagomari.prato.it
or coming here in Prato, Tuscany, Italy.
 
I thank you all for all your advices, but noone giving me a (cheap) solution: will I ever see Amiga OS in action?
regards
