A Few Amithlon Questions....
« on: August 10, 2003, 07:37:03 AM »
I've set up Amithlon again. Can you please answer these questions:

1. To install I simply created a Linux boot partition and AOS parition (0x76) and installed the isolinux files into the boot partition. Then booted from HD, used the HDToolbox in the minimal OS3.9 folder to setup the volumes on the "virtual" Amiga partition, installed OS3.9 onto my volume from the CDROM then changed the boot priority on the newly created volume to 0 then reset. Is this the way to do it? I can still see that minimal OS39 volume on my desktop... can i get rid of it?

2. How do I know if my nVidia card is being used in native mode not VESA mode?

3. How do i find out whether my HDD controller is being properly detected and not in PIO-0 mode?

4. Is there any special way to shut down Amithlon / Workbench or do I just power off the PC?

Thanks.

So there is still no write-behind caching on Amiga? There is no need to shutdown Workbench?
