Bad 3.1 install disks

[frl9lk]

I broke down and got another A4000. The hardware seems to work fine, but I find that my "Install" disks (from both my Commodore and Amiga 3.1 sets!) are bad. Using my 1000 and disksalv didn't work... those disks give me back messages the install_LD can't be found, and fails returncode 10. Do I have any other options than tracking down one more set of install disks? Thanks.

To be clear -- I do own the legitimate disk sets -- both Commodore's and Escom's. I can't find ADFs, but I have to say that it's frustrating to not have such a thing available. Even Apple's old OSes are in the public domain. I understand that a forum like this must respect protocols, but if some one could contact me privately here and point me in the right direction I would really really appreciate it.

(I think I ruined both my sets trying to install on an A2000 I own -- the bad blocks occur in the same place. Floppy failures have consistently been reason I have given up on Amigas -- still my true love for years at a time. That said, I do own a Joyboard and original Amiga joysticks.)

Thanks for any help.

The Joyboard is simply a cool thing to have. I don't have any of the three or so games made to work with it, or even a C64 emulator... The pre-Commodore Amiga joysticks on the other hand are great and what I choose to use. Simple, small and responsive.

The errors on my disk sets are so consistent, I feel sure in retrospect I stupidly torched them all on one machine... probably a 2000 I was fighting with a while back.
