FYI!
I never plug anything in....while the 1200 is on!

I also got a pcmcia kit from AmigaKit. It works great!

I think PCMCIA is hot swapable, I do it all the time when transferring files between PC and A1200.

Go to shell and type: CD CF0: what do you get?

Go to System: DEVS/DOSDRIVERS , do you see CF0 icon?
Please don't guess!
Can anyone confirm that the pcmcia slot is buffered and ""hot swapable""??

I usually get a bunch of files at once, transfer them to the cf card on the pc (usb)
Plug the cd card into the pcmcia adapter, turn on the 1200 and good to use.

Years ago, someone at a user group meeting plugged something in and killed the machine. I don't want to happen to me. So I go the safe way!

I also saw several bent pins on the pcmcia slot....watch for issues like that.
