While there is some software already available, I don't believe any have been  upgraded in ages. I would urge you to release these programs. The more activity there is on all fronts, the better.
Thank you for helping the Amiga community. I am sure this will be warmly received.

Cheers mate, The reason Im asking for opinions, is that most folk seem to be running amiga emulators on PC's and Macs (I don't think these utils would be any use to them!). I only use 'real Amiga's' and don't know if there are still many people out there doing the same that would find them useful.

There are still loads of people running the old, classic hardware. If you publish these programs, you see them come out of the woodwork in a hurry!

Most of the local Amiga users I know, use A1000, A2000, A3000, and A1200/A4000 machines.
I have an A2000 with a SCSI CD ROM at present, but I would love to change to a DVD-R DL +/-.
I live in the Washington D.C., Baltimore, Maryland area. There are still many Amiga users around here. For some reason few are on this site though (never could understand that)

Hi everyone

Looking for a little bit of help here...

Does anyone know of software already written for creating ISO files.

I have tried FryingPan but it seems to be limited to 4Gig size files.
Also tried MkiSofs but can't get this to make proper ISO images (it removes any filenotes from your amiga files and doesn't set the protection flags properly)

The only one I have found that creates perfect ISO files is AmiDVD, no 4Gig limit so you can burn a full DVD using my Utils roughly 4.3 to 4.4 Gig. Only trouble is you have to boot up in OS4.0 to use this. So it's not much use to most "Classic Users".

If anyone has any ideas of where I can find some ISO image creating utils, could you point me in the right direction. As this is the only part of these utils that I am still working on and if there's a good one already out there then I could stop writing mine and people who want to use my utills could use that instead.

Cheers Folks :drink:

If there's such a program for the classic Amiga (<3.1OS) I have yet to find it.
