Is this a statement or a question?

I hate Classic Workbench.  Hate the way it changes stuff around, makes it "un Amiga-ish" to me.  You're better to build and configure your system yourself.  But I get that some people don't have time/energy/knowledge for this, so to each their own.  Good luck!  :)

A proposed "Upgrade" to the original post:
Quote
 [FONT="]Well, I have updated my Amiga’s Workbench to “Classic WorkBench”[/FONT]
    [FONT="]As noted in the title of this thread, I have updated my WorkBench to “Classic WorkBench,” and now that my computer is outfitted with an ACA 1233/40 MHz Accelerator plus 128MB RAM, programs appear to load a lot faster and the access to the Internet was improved as well.

Of note, I did receive help from the group at LAG 43 today with both the software update and hardware upgrade. [/FONT]

The question in my mind is will Mcbone (the op, a beginner with only 22 posts) ever bother returning to this site after some of these responses?

We aren't trying to run people off, right?  We do want a larger, more diversified community?

I wonder if it's going to be like this gal?  She said she wanted a calendar on her computer.  ;)

We Helped mcbone instal Classic Workbench Full on his A1200 with ACA 1232/40mhz System at Lincs Amiga Group on the 2nd May :-) He wants to try to go online with it soon too.

Personally I think the Classic Workbench packs are brilliant for those who don't have time to setup AmigaOS With all the niceties and handy applications that make life a little easier - myself included :)

I'm sure at the next meeting we can get a TCP/IP Stack and a web browser installed and go online in glorious AGA

Be sure the PCMCIA network card is a 16bit card, also going for wifi or wired?

You will need to install MiamiDX (or any prefeered TCP/IP stack), then you need to install the drivers, Prism 2 compatible cards are quite easy to find. Then CardReset and CardPatch.

I can give you the lines needed for startup-sequence to get it rolling :)

Edit: Are you talking about MorphOS for PPC macs or for Classic Amigas with PPC cards? You need a PPC card to run the classic MorphOS on Amiga. You can shoehorn in AROS on your Amiga but with a 030 that ain't to practical yet xD

Hi mcbone,

Do you mean you can't see a Compact Flash card on your Workbench when you plug it into the PCMCIA Slot with it's adapter?

Classic Workbench doesn't come with CF0 In Devs:DosDrivers/ In my haste I might have forgotten to copy it on Saturday.

If you search Aminet for cfd.lha - The file you need should be in there.
