ASIMCDFS FLOPPY Problems - newbie question
« on: January 02, 2017, 03:07:33 PM »
My old commercial AsimCDFS version had a bad block on the floppy. I managed to download a version - ADK format - to my DF0: Gotex Floppy Emulator.However, every-time I run the installer from DF0:, the installer looks to the SYS: dir on floppy and tells me that I don't have enough space. I assume its trying to install on my DFO? I have tried Expert Mode install but can't get it to redirect to my HD for a new install.

OK, during my old Amiga DAW days, I use to use this software to read/burn CD/DVDs. I have one internal drive and one external. Are you saying I no longer need to worry about this with 3.9?

My SYS: drive is also big so space is not an issue

Thanks

To be clear, I just finished installing 3.9 into a new partition. Do I need to assign SYS: to this drive? I would of thought that was automatic from the install.

That did the trick Matt...you were right, my Boot partition is 3.8Gigs which I am sure caused some problems, that issue, along with redirecting the installer icon to SYS:Utilities worked....so thank you

BTW: I am ~ 30min west of Boston....we should connect some day to chat more. I am in process of reviving my old A2000 !

Thanks for your help

Yes...I agree, would be nice to connect in person.
I joined in late 2015 after chatting with Mike...it's been a slow process getting back up to speed with my A2000 upgrades...making progress :)
