Shapeshifter and hdd partisions.
« on: September 02, 2003, 10:14:46 PM »
i finally got shapeshifter working on mediator (amazingly) and now i am scared of making a
hdd partision , my hdd is a 120gb disk.

i made a 1.7gb partision for Shapeshifter , and i am about to format it inside mac emu.

now... is it safe? i really don't wanna loose my
120gb of stuff, some is backed up ofcourse (all game dev stuff etc) , but alot is not...

anyone heard of a problem with this? , ie the whole disk getting wiped or simmilar?

i run os3.9bb2 on a REAL amiga :)

thanx.

ok , i installed it on a old scsi2 hdd instead..a small one... as my big drive had no empty place under the 4gb limit.

anyway , to all who wonders about on how to get it working on mediator under p96 , well it wasnt easy... the probs i had was CRASHING when multitasking etc , inserting a cdrom and it would crash etc..

message me or email me for info if anyone needs it, as its too much to explain in here.

anyway now my hdd is running and i am playing kingsquest 7 on my amiga right now :) ..
next will be netscape if i can find it somewhere.

i had it all once, but lost it due to 2 years without ss made me loose intrests in mac..

ohwell i am happier than happiest atm..

also, could anyone explain me how to mount my hfs hdd in amigaos now? i forgot how, but i want it so i can move files over to the mac drive.

cheers
