Hardware or Software Problem with df1

[Matt_H]

Ah, an external drive. Here's (part of) your problem: external drives on a 2000 are DF2: and DF3:. DF1: is reserved for the second internal one.

Hmm, I might go with that but for the fact that when I boot WB, it shows up as df1:.  It'll even let me format and everything with no problems.  Just in the game that it's not recognized at all!

And yes, the jumper on the motherboard is set for 1 internal drive.  That should alleviate the df2: dilemma, but it is not.

Next batter!

That is strange. Can anyone else confirm either case of DF1:/DF2: on their setup?

Any other differences between the 500 and 2000? Kickstart? PAL/NTSC? Agnus?

How is your internal drive jumpered and cabled? As I recall, it should be set to DS0 and connected before the twist in the cable.

Are the 500 and 2000 both using Kickstart 2?

Hey, at least it's not a hardware problem

You might be able to softkick 1.3 - have a look at SKick

I'm really going to have to install CrossDOS aren't I?

Only computer I have hooked up to the 'net is my PEECEE.

If you've got WB 2.1, it's as simple as mounting PC0:
