Plain A1200???

[DrValkyer]

I found a new A1200(Commodore)3.1Rom NTSC bare-motherboard from Vesalia.  Ofcourse this kit doesn't include anything more than a motherboard.  I was thinking that would it be possible that I only bought a motherboard, a keyboard and a IDE-Fix (to add more IDE slots for CD-Rom & HD).

I own:
a powersupply (A500 and spare PC-PSU)
CD-ROM(PC)
Spare Amiga mouse
10G Seagate 3.5 HD

Sooo... Would it be possible to build a hobby-A1200-Tower from these parts?? Ofcourse I need a case too, but that can be build or moded from PC-Case? (Right :getmad: ). Is this possible, reasonble? The whole thing would possibly cost 110-120eur. Am I mad, or am I trying to get a A1200 desperately???

I seek the answer!!! :-) :-) :-)

So can't I just use A1200 keyboard and make/mod case for it? Is floppy compulsory? Is it possible to install just AmigaOs into HD and then boot from it?

[DrValkyer]

Vesalia sells A1200 UK keyboard for 9.90(from A1200 case)

Can I attach normal PC CD-Rom drive?

What about installing AmigaOS? Can it be done with UAE and PC?

[DrValkyer]

Hmm that keyboard-mod looks very nice!! :-) Did you grab that circuit from the motherboard?

[DrValkyer]

Ok thanks!!!

What about the AmigaOS, is it possible to pre-install it into HD? (If no floppy-drive)

[DrValkyer]

Aah great!!! That site contains everything! I have to look up those tutorials. Thank you very much!!  :-D

I have to try that WinUAE install some day.  Maybe it works and boots.

What about the NTSC version. I now that I should use PAL(because in EU) but isn't it possible to switch during the boot which stanard to use? Or am I going to face some deep troubles with NTSC?
