LHA from PC Desktop onto WinUAE via ADF?
« on: June 12, 2007, 02:38:33 AM »
Hi Amigans,

I currently require some help on how to get LHA files (Amiga Archive - I think) onto my emulated Workbench 3.1 OS via a disk image (ADF).
I need to find a way of making an ADF blank file and somehow adding the archive thing (Schwartz's Animation)  onto the ADF so that when I am on the 3.1 WB screen as soon as I add the disk onto the emulation system, it would be able to recognize everything. Sorry if this is all too confusing, if theres something that is unclear just explain to me and I'll try and re-word it in a better manor. I was never good with explaining technical problems. >.<

Thanks for looking. :-)

ADF Opus can edit ADF files.  If needed you can unpack the LHA file in Windows using WinRAR.

Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

May I ask, why don't you just mount the relevant folder as a harddrive in UAE?

If the LHA files are on the same machine as the emulated Amiga then it is an easy task to just "find" them and unLHA them. You could use a shell and command line but easiest would be to use DOpus (4.x). If the LHA files are not on the same machine then I would suggest copying the file onto a PC 720K formatted disc (if it isn't larger than about 713K) and transfer to the emulation machine, then do as above.

I don't see the need to use ADF file.

Thanks for all your help, only just discoverd it would work by downloading and just moving to the virtual hard drive. Well some of them work but it will have to do I guess, thanks again! :-D
