Compact flash to hdf converter?
« on: January 27, 2013, 12:01:21 AM »
Hi,
 
I've got a great compact flash card with everything loaded up (purchased off ebay) that I have been using with WIN UAE along with 2 x Amiga 1200's I have.
 
I am looking at saving some space and need to get rid of the Amiga 1200's I have along with a CD32 and Amiga 4000 keyboard (to connect to CD32) along with accelerator 030 50mhz board (64 meg on board).
 
Ideally I would love to run it with my Minimig I have (4 meg version with ARM controller).
 
Question, is it possible to convert the compact flash to an hdf file for use with the minimig?

winUAE can make an HDF of your CF card, if that's what the minimig uses :)

Yes hdf is what the Minimig uses.....is there a step by step guide.
 
Or do I just create the HDF file in WINUAE, mount the compact flash in WINUAE and then just copy everything across from one to the other?
 
Thanks for your help!

Would you need to set the max trasfer mask on the drive with the minimig? Or is that just something to do with classic hardware.
