Ok, as the title mentions, I am still kind of confused as to how this is done. I bought this Amiga 500 on eBay -->
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2789658120, and as you can tell it has both a CDRom drive and a Syquest SQ-555 Ext 44MB Drive. My question is this.
I have a lot of .ADF files that I have downloaded from back2roots. I don't know if I should try to hook up the Syquest drive to my PC (running XP) and transfer them over, then connect the Syquest drive back to the Amiga 500 and write the .ADF's to 880k disks. Or, should I burn a CD with the ADF's on my PC and try to load it into the CDRom drive on the Amiga 500 and try to transfer these files over that way. The Amiga also has cross-dos, which might be another option???
What would you suggest? I am not even sure that you can take a .ADF file, for example, elite.adf and copy this over to a 880k and then it will load. Is there something else you need to do? Also, I have heard you need to burn a CD in a specific format for it to be read on an Amiga 500.
I'm sitting here scratching my head as to what is the best way to do this. If you can take the time to let me know, AND explain it to me, like I am a 3yr old, I would greatly appreciate it.
Much thanks in advance!
