Cd Rom on A2000 Question

[dansilvester]

Hi!

I have an A2000 which has an internal hard drive and SCSI card, this all works fine. Ihjave aquired a CD ROM and plugged it all in. It powers up OK but I have no idea what to do after this! Do I need some software to get WB to recognise the drive? If I type mount CD0: in shell it says it's already mounted! I'm runnning and Kick 2.0 and it's the Commodore SCSI card.

Any help greatly appreciated!

Thanks for your reply. I think I've found Aminet, but I can't seem to connect to any servers?
How do I use software on the Amiga that I have dowloaded on the PC?
Sorry for being infuriatingly clueless!

[dansilvester]

Cool, understand that, thanks!

You don't know where else I can get the file you mentioned? I can't get into Aminet!!

Um, how do I find/ use crossdos??

[dansilvester]

Aww nuts.  :-(

[dansilvester]

I've got MessyDos or something, it's saved as a .lha on the PC, how do I get to work on the Amiga? It's just says DF0:
I have got WB 2.04, so no in-built CrossDOS :-(

[dansilvester]

Will an Amiga read a .lha file off a 720kb formatted disk?

thanks for the links to the programs, I am having diffidculty getting the Amoga to recognise the disks.

[dansilvester]

Please can anyone help me! I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. I realise this is very basic for you all, but I have never done this before. I don't know how to get the Amiga to read the stuff I put on 720kB formatted disks from this PC.

Thanks!
