again LHA
« on: August 01, 2006, 10:52:20 AM »
[color=ff0000]HELP! LHA FILES[/color]

I have an amiga 1200, HD internal and external.
A blizzard IV with 64mb.
I had some games, the got screwed and now I want them new.

I look with my PC on the internet at Aminet. He! I can get them there again! Wow! I downloaded the games I want (Syndicated and Pinball) but they have this LHA extention.

I try to transfer them onto a Floppy disk (3,5"). But my Amiga can not read a PC formated disk, neither can my PC (XP-windows) read an Amiga formated disk. D*&$@M!

What did I do wrong? Is there somebody out there who can help me out?

Is there a web-site which can explain to a lamer like me how to get a LHA file from your PC thrue floppydisks onto my Miggy? Which available standard program(s) are/is needed?
Where can I get them? How can I get them?

Thanks Many Thanks !

Hai Hellcoder,

That is the problem.
I need to know how to format FD with XP, it automaticly put the disk on 1,44 MB!!. I have plenty of DD disk, but not able to format it, so I can copy from PC to Amiga.
What is wrong withme? :-?

OK, installed succesfully LHa on the Miggy.
Now I need the RTFM instructions.
Which character do I need, to see the list with all possible extentions/parameter?

On the PC I use to type LHA /?

How does it work with Amiga OS.
SamuraiCrow explained one parameter, but there are more,right?
Silly but true (this quest)
