Looking for PFS3
« on: March 14, 2007, 11:08:30 AM »
Hi all,

I've been trying SFS for a while on my A1200, but I find it a b*tch to install, and it still does not want to let me use my 4.3GB harddrive beyond the 4GB border. I made a few partitions, varying in size from 150MB to 2.5GB, but if the total of those partitions exceeds 4GB, it won't recognise the last partition.

To avoid this trouble on my A4000 with it's new 40GB drive, I want to use PFS3 with it.
So if anyone has a spare copy, or knows where to get it, please let me know. No Ebay auctions please.

Thanks,
McVenco

what about using google?

$60? That sounds more like ms-windows software prices to me. I thought PFS has since long been discontinued....

I tried that newer scsi.device before, but it always gave me some recoverable error, complaining about having exceeded some expiration date (iirc). Strange thing is that I didn't have a functioning clock in my A1200, so why would it say that?
Anyway, therefore it wouldn't load the device, giving me the same problem again.

Tried/used that as well, to no avail. Maybe I'm just doing a lot of things the wrong way. (I should be more patient I presume).

So I guess that PFS needs to work with the newer scsi.device as well?
