Help installing OS3.9 on A1200 with Squirrel SCSI CD-ROM
« on: May 20, 2003, 12:08:59 PM »
Hi,

Last night I tried installing OS3.9 on my A1200 using a Squirrel SCSI CD-ROM drive.

I booted with CD-ROM support using a PowerC boot floppy created using the software supplied with the Squirrel, and then created an emergency disk using the OS3.9 CD.

When I try and boot from the Emergency disk, I get an error message about "cd.device" and "unit0", and then another message telling me to insert "AmigaOS3.9" (which is sat in the CD-ROM drive).

Any suggestions?

My A1200 is an AT A1200 with 3.1 ROM's, a Blizzard 68030 with 32MB RAM, and a 6GB IBM HD.

Thanks!
Steve.

Thanks, I'll give it a try!
Is it a well-known problem with Squirrel SCSI CD-ROM drives, then?
