whdload packs?
« on: January 29, 2008, 11:32:33 PM »
i'm trying to work out if these are the full games all ready sorted for quick use? if so do you just drag and drop them onto your amiga hard disk? i like that idea i don't want to have to use floppy disks.

"requirements: a minimum of 1.0 MB RAM (sometimes more, it depends on the installed program)"

is that fastram? just wonder how well it works on a stock a1200?

it's all setup and installed and i've managed to enjoy some games. but alot of them keep nagging about silly version named kickstart roms i haven't put in my devs/ kickstarts because none of the rom images i have seem to work.

any idea what versions they are supposed to be. and where to get them? i am legal to use them all.

job done.

boy am i sodded off trying to get the kickstarts to work. can someone zip up a working dev:kickstarts drawer and mail me? or  help in some other way. :crazy:
i own an a500+ (and have the cheapy version of amiga forever with 1.3 rom.) a600 and upgraded a1200. so i have 1.3, 2, 3 and 3.1 roms. i am entitled to use those roms. (and no i'm not going to use transrom etc etc. life is too short.)

i am doing all i am told. i am using os 3.9. and i'm not the only one who's had a problem.

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.amiga.programmer/msg/a66fa93f9354ef0a

i have tried a few rom images. i am assuming even if i go to the trouble of using transrom there is still a bug somewhere. when i do what it asks me to in the docs. it says its not the right image.

yeah this is the problem i've done all that. (apart from transrom.) i wonder if someone can tell me the exact file size of the roms? (i got the 1.3 rom elsewhere. actually 2 different places. but it still won't work.) is everyone else using os 3.1?

"error during resload_loadkick, invalid kickstart image." i tried again with the af 1.3 rom. renamed it and copied the key also. do i need to rename the key?
