Amiga Forever and CDRom support
« on: November 10, 2004, 01:52:30 AM »
  I have not used Amiga Forever in a long time. (I had a state of the art 450mhz P3 at the time). I never had tried to get the cd working. Does the new Amiga Forever have CD support? Can AsimCDFS work under emulation with an ide cd drive? Is there a tutorial on this somewhere?

  Thanks all!

 I have one more question about Amiga Forever 6. Can I copy my hard drive from an Amiga onto a Jazz disk and boot from it on the PC?  Would save all that configuring to get my workbench to the pc.

  The Jazz drive is a cartridge system.Each cart is seen as a hard drive with it's own rdb. The drive is about as fast as any of the Amiga  hard drives I have had. The controller is the limiting factor in the Amigas. I have used them to boot the Amiga by setting the boot priority to the Jazz first. As long as a bootable disk is present it will boot whatever workbench I have on there. I had 3.1, 3.5 and 3.9 all on thier own disks. Did not increase my boot times noticeably.
