amigakits pcmcia network kit
« on: May 07, 2008, 06:19:34 PM »
hi all, I got a Netgear pcmcia network card from Amiga kit along with a driver disk, I stuck the card in the slot, copied the drivers to the dev/networks folder on my HD and rebooted. The link light comes on as does the 100MB light. But now I'm kind of stuck as to what to do next to get it working. Its hooked in to my PC and the PC sees something is connected, but the Amiga (a1200 BTW with a 68030 cup and 68882fpu)does not respond to pings or transmit to the PC. Has anyone else used this device and got it to work? please help as I have no other way to get info on to my Amiga at the moment. Thanks

ok, how can I do that. I don't have a link between the internet and my Amiga. And don't have a clue how to write Amiga disks on the pc. Nor do I have a CF device on the Amiga. Is there a way to do this or am i screwed.

no icon to click on the harddrive, but I found it on the Storage floppy ran it and formated the disk. Now I have a bigger problem though. For some reason after I rebooted my Amiga it will no longer boot from the hard drive  :-?

Network Driver Install

I don't know if I formated it or not, Its just not there any more. It is not showing any place and the Amiga will not boot without the WB disk. I don't have an install disk so I have ordered one. I just have to wait a few weeks for it to clear customs.
