Pulling my hair out over LHA!!!
« on: May 20, 2006, 06:10:31 AM »
Hello all!

I have been trying to get these LHA /ZIP files to work for the last 3 HOURS! I keep getting "crc error" messages for both. What the H*LL is the problem here? I updated to LHA22 and reeeealy want my miggy to look beautiful like she deserves to be!

It goes like this:

I'll get the crc message so I'll erase the disc and try again...only to find out that it's a different file every time!

Am I missing something here?

Thanks in advance!  :madashell:

Ok...

My system is an Amiga 1200 2mb chip (duh) 4mb fast os 3.1 with matching kickstart.

I am also using an Amiga 600 with the same.

I usually just copy the direct lha file to a floppy and unpack it on the amigas using lha /lhx (or if it's a zip I use unzip). I usually write the command in the shell like this:

lha x pc0:blah helpthispoorsoul/

I don't use anything other than that. I tried several versions of lha and I keep getting the error messages.

Am I missing something here? How do I do a system check? Apologies for the noob questions but as I said...I'd like the miggy to strut her stuff and show my buddies that she's still got it.

Hell! I'd even take it to dinner if it were socially acceptable! :lol:
