The derpy adventures of RedWarrior...

This is great.  Glad you have a good sense of humor about things!   I often get frustrated because I know a good user group (if such things still existed) could get you squared away in a few minutes, rather than 50 messages back-and-forth in a forum.  But at least you're learning!

Pfs is compatible with all Amiga's. I assume you're using the latest version of PFS-AIO from Aminet? And the tools from the 53 archive?

You can't just change the file system and expect it to work. After you change the file system you need to repartition the device (with HDtoolbox), format the partitions, and reinstall all your applications.

The easy way!
Install the ide to cf adaptor
Install a 4 gig cd card on the list of working cards
Start the 1200/600 with the install disk from commodore.
Run HDTools, setup the cf card with partition DH0 200megs and DH1 500megs DH2 2 gig.
Restart the machine with the install disk.
Format the partitions.
USE the install disk to install the OS on DH0.

This gets the machines going correctly. THEN add the extras you want.

LOL. Seriously, this. I've never had most of the problems you guys have. Then again I've never tried to use WinUAE to set up an Amiga partition. Coincidence? I think not. :laughing:

My god, man. Brand new floppy drives, starting at the princely sum of $19.68, USD:

Occasionally preloaded CF cards filled with games pop up on eBay, but since this is (technically) software piracy, they tend to get yanked pretty fast. Still, you might get lucky.

IMHO a replacement keyboard and floppy drive would be a better investment of your money, however. :p

The zeal you guys have in defending abandonware from copying isn't really seen in any other fan-club... I can't understand the logic.

Not by choice, that's a question for the moderators.  :p
