Where could i find these Girv or one-off-hacks?

I remember back in my A500 time there were released some HD installers eventually, that worked for computers that time, that means pre-AGA and pre-tons-of-memory needed.

Where could i find some of these? I've got an A1200 with plenty of WHDLoad, but my A500 is still hungry of HD stuff, and WHDLoad is a "no-go" with only 1Mb

 :-D

Yep, that's JST, it's an alternative to WHDL, but i remember there were specific installers released by crack teams back in time. The only problem for JST is the same WHDL has, needs 2mb or more. Back in time i remember seeing installers that only required 1mb to run.

Maybe the ones that were removed from Aminet.  :-?

Yep, but in my case i'm looking for installs that could be run on a 1Meg A500 with HD. I'm looking to give this computer some functionallity, and not being depending of the floppy stuff.

I do agree WHDLoad is a great thing, and really useful, i do use it without problems in my A1200 030.
