ASIMCDFS FLOPPY Problems - newbie question

[paul1981]

My old commercial AsimCDFS version had a bad block on the floppy. I managed to download a version - ADK format - to my DF0: Gotex Floppy Emulator.However, every-time I run the installer from DF0:, the installer looks to the SYS: dir on floppy and tells me that I don't have enough space. I assume its trying to install on my DFO? I have tried Expert Mode install but can't get it to redirect to my HD for a new install.

SYS is always the boot drive by default, so the only reason your Amiga thinks that SYS is the floppy is because you booted from the floppy instead of your OS3.9 boot drive. I'm not sure whether that's what you're supposed to do with that installation disk or not though.

If browser software or email software is installed on the boot partition, then 500MB may not be enough for some (caches etc, stored mail...)
If it's a large drive, a juicy 1GB does nicely, plus it's a nice round number which satisfies my OCD. :laugh1:
