Hi, I plan on setting up a 2.5" hd for my newly working amiga 1200 using Winuae.  Its a 6gb hd so space should not be an issue.  The 1200 has 3.0 roms on the motherboard.  

Should I use os 3.0 or 3.1?  Also, what is some "Must Have" software, games, etc.  It will all be easy to transfer over using winuae to set it all up, then slap it in the real amiga to take home!  Let me know guys/gals (Are there amiga gals? ;)).


Hi,

You may have issues with 6gb depending on what file system you install (4gb is the normal limit).  I'd go for 3.1 ROMS myself and install OS 3.9 along with the patches.

Have you got yourself a memory expansion card yet?  You really need one if you want to do anything useful with it.

And pre-order an Indivision while your at it :)

WHDLOAD is the most important software to install along with loads of game packs  :-D

Nice Ports on AmiNet!
