installing workbench 3.1
« on: July 22, 2006, 04:21:24 PM »
I have Amiga forever 6.0,  and I was wondering if it has all the adf's necessary to install WB3.1 using winuae.  I have another cd with a collection of workbench adfs but it has several disks for each version whereas AF 6.0 seems to only have 1 for each version.  If I have to use the ones of the collection disk which version do I use?  Also what is Amiga forever's 3.X mean?


Thanks,
EiGHtBiT

No it only has 1 ADF for Workbench but it includes a HD directory with all Workbench installed (Extras, Fonts, Storage etc) and applications included.

When you install AF6 the directory can be found in
C:\Program files\Cloanto\System\dir.

AF 3x means Amiga Forever Workbench 3.x (3.1 or later)

Here is the official explanation what 3.X means: http://www.amigaforever.com/kb/5-107.html

Basically it is a mixture of 3.5, 3.9 and even more recent files.

There is no way to get a clean 3.1 installaltion from the AF CD. Most files are newer versions than those of 3.1.
