Hi everyone! Amiga newbie from Norway

Welcome to amiga.org
Why not get a ethernet card instead? I think that is the least painful way.
But from those two options, i would definitely go with the flash card adaptor.
I personally just use a cd/dvdburner for transferring files.

amigakit also sells pcmcia ethernet cards i think.

I have tried to connect harddrives to it, using a 2,5 inch to 3,5 inch adaptor, but when i boot Workbench and try to use the hd-install tool, it cannot find it..I've tried with several old hd's, ranging from 40 megs to 850 megs without luck..It's kind of frustrating.

That is very odd indeed! I have nothing to suggest there, but i hope someone else here do. An a1200 is very crippled without a HD in my opinion.

Though.. hmm could it be that you are using the orginal a1200 psu? then that could be possible it..
