Hi All,
i make music with 2 c64 and a gameboy and i decided that the last piece is going to be an amiga 500! so i found some free software on the net that i want to install on my new A500 but...there's a way to do that? i mean can i save from pc and read on amiga without problem or i need some special converter? which is the "easy" way?thanks to all...
If you have Workbench 1.2 or Workbench 1.3, your best bet is AmigaExplorer from Cloanto. It's being used with a null-modem on the serial port (it also works with an USB to serial cable)
If you use Linux instead of Windows, you need LXAmiga, which works together with the amiga side of AmigaExplorer.
If you don't have any workbench 1.2+ disks at all with your Amiga, you'll NEED the catweasel controller (or somehow get a workbench 1.2+ disk)
