Cool - thanks!
The problem is actually getting any of these files to the A1200 in the first place. I don't have another Amiga that's able to get out to the 'net so that leaves being able to write a 720K msdos floppy (?) and then the CrossDos commodity under 3.1 being able to read it or getting files over electronically. Dialup isn't gonna fly so that pretty much leaves a null-modem cable from a Windows machine and a comm program on each end. I'm gonna check with some guys at the office tomorrow if there's a null-modem cable laying around in a dusty corner somewhere. If not... well, c'mon AmigaKit!
No user group in the area or no buddy with an Amiga to snarf up a couple of files to get this little exercise going again. It's not a show stopper but dambit I want to play with this beast.
Unless there's an option I haven't considered...?
You could try the way I set up a CF card for my A1200 - but it does depend if you have a pc with PATA on it you can attach the CF card onto. Then you have two options - start up WinUAE, with the card mounted, and install from there, or boot the pc into AROS (e.g. via Icaros live DVD/CD, if, of course, your harware is compatable) and copy the files across from your install media using that (by that I mean the CBM files, not AROS 68k - that would be {currently} too slow on an unexpanded A1200).
Cheers,
Nigel.
