Limiting Hard Drive Size on UAE.
« on: December 06, 2009, 10:59:43 PM »
Using UAE is there any way to limit your virtual partition sizes. I was trying to use AMOS Professional, and I thought I might as well designate a virtual hard drive to it. Well during the installation process, as my picture notes, AMOS detects my hard drive as having a negative number of free bytes. I assume the reason is my drive is too big. Is there anyway of limiting the size of the virtual drive?
Once there was a man and a boy in the woods.
 
Boy: I\'m scared...
 
Man: Hah! What have you got to be afraid of? I\'m the one that\'s going to be coming back alone!

I'm not sure if there is, but a work-around would be to use a hardfile (yes, it's additional clutter, but it should work).

I have had this same problem when trying to install AMOS Pro on a real Amiga computer's hard drive.
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)
