well its up and running with a 256mb cf card for now, but i have encountered a few issues, so can anyone help me.

the keyboard adaptor i have is a 'EZKEY-SE Amiga Keyboard Adapter' which i plug the A3000 keyboard into, but it just does not work. i dont need any software to get this to work do i ?

i have no software disks so i dont have the drivers for the squirrel scsi. anyone know where i can get them?

the elbox 4xeide'99 adaptor also has no software. do i need to get into contact with elbox to get the drivers to use all ports, or can idefix97 help.

as i dont have any spare drives at the mo, im also thinking of connecting an old 80mb 2.5" hd to my pc through a usb adaptor so i can install stuff on that through winuae, so searching for a guide :-D

Squirrel doesn't autoboot, you have to create a boot disk which then reboots the amiga and boots from the hard disk attached to the Squirrel...it's documented well on the squirrel installation disks.
