CrossDos in OS 3.9 ??
« on: April 26, 2008, 06:10:36 AM »
I wanted to transfer some small files from my PC to my Amiga, and my floppy drives did not read the PC disks.
I'm running OS 3.9, I thought it had CrossDos, do I need to do some configuration to make it work??

strange, even with PC0 and PC1 in my Devs/Dosdrivers drawer they did not automount when I insert a PC disk, I still had to doubleclick the PC0 / PC1 icons

Btw, is there anyway I can get rid of icons so that an Amiga disk will not show the PC0:????? icon and a PC disk won't show the DF0: Unreadable icon ??

I tried installing GhostBuster, but I don't know how to make it work properly :(

I should copy the GhostBuster (and .info) file to my WBStartup *check*
I should ad a "NOWAITDELAY" tooltype... I tried unsuccesfully
I should copy the proper Workbench version to my Prefs folder.... does that mean overwrite the Workbench file there or simply copy the Workbench39 file there ??

Sorry to be such a noob but I need help :)

I tried installing GhostBuster the way you explained, but it does not work... I still see the ghosted icons... strange!! Btw, "Wait until finished" was unchecked already.

ah once again you come to rescue me :)
I hadn't noticed that the WB prefs menu had gotten wider, I applied the changes to PC0, PC1, DF0 and DF1 and it works beautifully :)

Now is there any way I can always have an icon for my CD-rom drive no matter whether it has a CD in it or not ??
