How do I install older floppy based software on my new Sam?

[beamer]

Hello,

I have finally assembled my new Sam and obviously it has no Amiga style floppy drive. I also have a newer (floppy based) copy of Aladdin 4D and would like to run it on the new computer. How do I do this? Also, is there any decent way to run adf images directly on the Sam?

BTW, I am loving the new Amiga and OS4.1!

I would definitely be interested in that file name if you could find it! Was the program meant for PPC?

I really haven't kept track of the Amithlon, don't know much about it so my statement was based on ignorance...

@ Thomas

Thanks for the input, I do have 2 A500's and one A4000 so I should be able to convert the floppies to adf's using transdisk as supplied with UAE

@ spirantho

Thanks for the input on the catweasel, do you know of a PDF of a user manual for this device? I haven't seen much info on how exactly this might be hooked up, example: can I use any type of floppy drive with it like Amiga or PC floppy drives?

@ Pyromania

I believe I received the Aladdin 4D with a Toaster card I ordered from you!
It is always a positive experience working with DiscreetFX!
Thanks for being there for the Amiga community!

@ All others...

Thanks much for all your responses! I believe there is more support available (for the Amiga) now than was available back in 1988 when I bought my first A500... Very encouraging!!

@ Methuselas

No apologies needed!

One definition of "ignorant" per merriam-webster.com "lacking knowledge or comprehension of the thing specified"

Thanks for educating me on the Amithlon... good to know.

Looks like I might have a catweasel in my future, will have to write to Jens, Thanks!
