Hi Fellow Gamers and G33ks!

I am currently attempting to install a 4GB CF Card in my A600 'June Bug'. I am nearly giving up hope, constantly hitting brick walls in the process...
Right now the issue is that the Install Disk in the WB 3.0 disk set I've bought has been left out so I cannot setup the Hard drive.
I would REALLY appreciate a friendly soul guiding me through this, I've tried nearly everything and would love to be able to play all my originals without tearing on the disks...

Kind Regards,
Dani Dogenigt


Assuming your A600 has the 3.1 ROM, you need the install disk for 3.1, 3.0 is only for the AGA Amiga's (I believe).  There are many, many places on the net you can download copies of all the WB disks from, then probably the easiest way is to transfer the ADF image over via CF card and write it to a blank disk with the Amiga.

Alternatively many users have been sucessful setting up their CF card in a PC with WinUAE and then plugging it into their Amiga.  Personally I prefer to do all my "Amiga stuff" on my Amiga, just as Commodore intended, but the proponents of that method do say it's easier.  ;-)
