I was trying to help HersSte over MSN to get his A2000 working.  It boots from HD (into WB 1.3) and then goes all weird, booting some other weird program that needs a button on the back of the monitor to be pressed.  As I am in Australia (and don't actually have an A2000 until tomorrow night), I am not much help.  The A2000 was previously used for research and is now in the possession of a school, to continue part of that research, I believe.  As he has no keyboard, Workbench disks or second Amiga, he obviously needs someone to either lend him a copy of WB 1.3 or recommend somewhere to buy it.  (If it's still possible to buy WB 1.3,   :lol: )


during boot, hold down Ctrl-D to break the Startup-sequence, then type;
C:Loadwb
C:Endcli
That should get him to Workbench.

Yeah, the problem is having no keyboard  :-o
Am I right in assuming that there'd be some sort of schematics on aminet to use a PC keyboard on an A2000?


Hmm... I didn't see that... There are plently of Amiga shops that sell PS/2 to Amiga keyboard adapters... the problem is that they probably need drivers...

Yeah.....So it's either get hold of a genuine A2000 keyboard or take the HD out and use WinUAE to read it and install drivers?


yup
