AmigaOS 3.9 Emergency Boot disk HELP!
« on: February 15, 2009, 07:43:57 PM »
Hi,

I have recently bought an Amiga 1200hd from ebay witch I am very happy with except that the previous owner has messed around with the colours, icons, programs etc... So I would like to reinstall AmigaOS 3.9. I have the CD but the emergency boot disk that came with it just gives errors about inserting the CD in the drive but my pcmcia CD rom drive (Arcohos overdrive)works just fine with the current installation. I have tried making a new boot floppy but the same happens. So my question is does the emergency disk recognise pcmcia drives or is the disk faulty or is it me?

From,

Tom Moss.
