Re: Sending files via cable from my PC to my A1000

Well I did it.

Its a hassle sometimes but works.

What you should do:

- read the links above
- make sure you end the transfer by both hitting Ctrl-C AND sending somethin again from the PC
- you should have one of the programs for the amiga for transferring disk images now in your RAM.
- copy it to your workbench disk, or make some bootable disk with it
- use the program to transfer any adf to your amiga disk

- it helps to have a working UAE installation. You can make disks with tools, bootdisks and the like and transfer them to the amiga.

and make sure your cable is correct. I think I remeber its not a stock serial nullmodem-cable, but I might be wrong.

Have fun,
McTrinsic

Hhhhmmmm....

ok, at that point you need to press Ctrl-C.

You DID initiate another transfer from the PC side as stated in the manual?

You should then get a prompt.

If not, make sure you use very slow and compatible transfer rates. Be patient with this beginning.

Have fun,
