So how would that look in the startup sequence?

This being the original;

IF EXISTS SYS:C/IDEFIX
C:IDEFIX
ENDIF

Remember, I havent used Amiga for many many years, and these commands are basically alien to me ;)

The setup I got is;

Blizzard 1230/50
FPU 68882
Kickstart Rom 3.1 (provided by Amigakit)
Memory 2+16 megabyte
Workbench 3.0

I bought the Compact Flashcard Harddisk from Amigakit. Additionally Indivision Mk 2 and Lyra 2 keyboard adapter.

So basically my Workbench is a clean Workbench 3.0 (version 39.29) install with kickstart 40.68 with the IDEFIX install in startup sequence that freezes the startup.
The CDROM is;

Slimline CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combi Drive/CF Bundle A600/1200: CF IDE Adapter (int.) and Slimline CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive, 3x2.5" cable 30 cm, external case (incl. IDE-max '97, CF card not included)

I installed NewIcon V4, and it looks nice.

One snag tho; one of my partitions decided to not work from Workbench anymore. When I click ADH2: in Dopus I can browse the partition like normal, so I guess the HDD2.info file is messed up. How to fix this?

So, enjoying Workbench 3.9+Boing bag upgrades, but I feel a bit short on memory (2+16).
Getting 128 megabytes of ram for sure.

Hehe, well, ive actually put the A1200 back into the original case.

And with the Vampire, it will be great for x years to come. Additionally, with a standalone Vampire, the amiga expirience will outlast me im sure ;)
