Once things get rolling I would gladly refer to the expertise of this community in testing boards.

Back when Commodore was still around, they had a "systest" or burn in disk for repair centers. I might still have a .dms copy around somewhere. I don't know if it would run on the minimig... but it might be interesting to try.

Edit: Found the file- it was ADF, not .dms... but it runs under UAE, although the _blit and RTC tests fail. That could be my UAE setup.

I kinda left the Amiga scene in 2001 and burned everything I had to DVD, checked the DVD and although I have WB disks, and HD setup disks (even a A1000 sidecar disks) no burn in disks...

I did much the same thing a few years back, as a safeguard against bitrot on all those old floppies and magazines. Now instead of "the big pile o' disks", I've got the CD full of anonymous ADFs. ;-)  If you think it will help. PM me with an email address, I'll stretch a point and send you a copy.

There's a fellow selling one on ebay... of course it's $99...

Ahh.... I can see it now: "Very Rare! official Commodore Amiga Systest disk" What a ripoff artist.

The November issue of Circuit Cellar Ink magazine has a short article on putting a project into production. Interesting, but nothing new to the folk trying to set this up. It's good background for those following along from the gallery. ;-)
