Amiga 4000T
« on: February 20, 2006, 01:53:26 PM »
Hi everybody

I'm an old Amiga supporter and have an A500 A1200 and recently bought an A4000T.
2 Cards were present Picasso 2 & Ariadne.
The cards are removed and i got hold of an old scsi hardisk and converted the 3.1 disks from adf files and checked them on both the 500 (ks 2)and 1200 (ks3)and they look ok.However i only get the Workbench screen and nothing more when i try to boot it up.
Both the mouse and keyboard is working fine.
Any help would be appreciated.

Also i have bought a tower for the 1200 an are looking for faceplate for the diskstation.
Do they still exist?
Live in Norway so any knowledge of local scandinavian shops would help.

Thanx in advance

Maybe you have to delete some files which are not really needed for booting like hdbackup or hdtoolbox. Just copy them to another disk.

Did delete toolbox and put it in libs .
Got guru.

Anyway thanks

I will not surrender

With a lot of help from the board it is up and running from disk.However i do not get it to boot from hardrive.I tried both the ide that i had in my 1200 with a new install from the 3.1 disks and a scsi 1gig formatted with 2 partitions each 520mb.Every disk is fully usable when i boot from the WB3.1 disk.Also i forgot to mention that it is a 68060 on a card with extra memory got a total of about 50mb available. Is this an acceleratorcard or standard? From what i read it should have 4mb standard or am i wrong? The card is very hard to get to so if there is something i should look for to identify iti would be thankful for any help.btw it has 4 slots for memory of which 3 is in use.When i boot from harddisk i get the same guru again,but when it is newly formatted i get the dosscreen.
