Heya DonutKing, welcome to Amiga.org! :)

Since we installed ClassicWorkbench on that CF card for you, it is probably configured for English Amigas. This is quoted from the ClassicWB website:

Quote

ClassicWB defaults to the Great Britain locale and keymap settings. Obviously this is no good if you live elsewhere and your time zone and keyboard layout differs.

In order to change these settings, do the following:
Move the required keymap from the "Storage/Keymaps" to "Devs/Keymaps" drawer
Place the "gb" keymap back into the "Storage/Keymaps" drawer, or it will take up memory
Reboot the Amiga and open up the "Prefs/Input" requester
Select your corresponding keymap and save the setting
Open up the "Prefs/Locale" requester and select your region, again saving the setting

Note that those with an American keyboard layout are able to simply remove the "gb" keymap, placing it back into the "Storage/Keymaps" drawer, leaving the "Devs/Keymaps" drawer empty. The required keymap is built into the ROM as its default setting, so to finish just save the "Prefs/Input" with "American" selected.


You just need to use the American keymap for our Australian Amigas. That should fix you up! For more information check this out: http://classicwb.abime.net/classicweb/instructions.htm

Good luck :)
