Kippers card is a really nice solution for a fair price, I love it in my machine =)
Just notice that you need at least 2.x ROM's to be able to boot on the CF-card (using 3.1 myself in the machine).

got a question for you..

I have WB as .ADF files and will want it on a bootable CF.   I'm assuming the CF gets formatted to an Amiga FS format, correct?  If so, I'll need to get my .ADF's to a 3.5" floppy.  Did you solder the wires directly to the mobo?


I was lazy and prepared a CF via WinUAE which was rather convenient when I prepped it with WHDLoad titles etc.
I created 2 partitions on the card, one for the plain system and then a bigger one for the games/demos using pfs3.

Yes I soldered the connector that came with the card, which you just attached the cable to later when you install it. Be careful to count the correct numbers of holes you should place it in :) I missed one hole first and nothing worked.
