I havent got any workbench adfs just the real 3.0 discs. So things did get messy and confusing.

I suppose I'll be able to download the adfs from somewhere

Well, if you've got the 3.0 floppy disks, why not make your own ADF's from them using something like ADF-Blitzer.............




You just click on 'Read' if you want to create an ADF in your hard drive from a floppy disk inserted into your floppy drive.

OR

Click on 'Write' if you want to unpack an ADF file from your hard drive onto a floppy disk.

I've never figured out what 'Quit' is for ;)

I'm starting to think it might be a hardware issue with either the squirrel or PCMCIA slot. :(

I guess you know that some accelerator cards can stop the PCMCIA slot from working? Anyway, If I recall correctly, you can check if your PCMCIA slot is working by switching on your A1200 while keeping both mouse buttons held down. This will take you to the 'Amiga Early Startup Control' screen. Choose 'Boot Options...' and if you see CC0 in the 'Select Boot Device' list then you should be ok as CC0 is the PCMCIA slot :)
