WHD files

[Skov]

I am busy testing out the machine. Put my roms in place and everything is going nicely.

Now, when I try to install WHD files to the launch menu I hit a dead end.

I select a whdload .lha archives and add it. It boots - the Amiberry logo pops up - and then it tells me that DH0 is write protected.

What am I missing here? :-)

[Skov]

Well, actually. I cannot got ADF's, HDF's or WHD's to run.

I have roms installed. Sometimes it goes to kickstart3.1 when I launch a game from ADF.

WHD's all boots and then tells me that device DH0 is write protected.

If somebody has any success with this I would like to know how they did it?

I really want this to work. It is a nice little device - networking and all.

What Configuration have you chosen ? If you want to start an ADF that is for A500 be sure you got a KICK13.ROM imported and choose A500 config, for WHDLoad games you got to have a KICK31.ROM, config will be choosen automatically

works fine here

[Skov]

Well, it goes like this. :-)

In the pictures I have added a whdload Aladdin.lha-file

Just tested with Aladdin AGA WHDLoad Slave 1.7 and it´s running fine, please re-check if your kick31.rom file is indeed an A1200 Kickstart 3.1 Version 40.068 (test it in WinUAE maybe) ... if I delete that from my imported ROMs Aladdin won´t load ...

Also you could check the LHA if all files are in there (.slave and data directory) ...

[Skov]

Thanks! I will unpack the Aladdin lhd to see if it is all there.

But it looks like the rom is okay, doesn't it?

[SkulleateR]

40.063 is Kick 3.1 for A500/600/2000 ...

[Skov]

Sigh... :-) I will test with this one instead!

[F0LLETT]

Thats the one.

[Skov]

Great. I will use this rom and this All new world of Lemmings AGA-lha files. As you can see the data is there.

[Skov]

Sadly that did not solve the issue. It remains the same.

I use the rom tested on WinUAE and the Lemmings.lha I showed yesterday and it still goes like shown in the pictures.

Then I´m running out of ideas here, just tested the exact same WHD LHA from your screenshot and it works fine 

Maybe you have to restore your system partition, maybe some files missing ? I really cannot tell  :'(

Like SkullEater, I'm at a lose, as mine also all work perfectly fine.

[Skov]

Thanks. I will try to restore the system tomorrow. It is a really lovely piece of hardware, but not as useful as hoped right now. :-)

[Skov]

Well, I tried to restore systemv46, work og programs to default and that did not change anything.

I still get the Volume DH0 is write protected for all WHD.lha files. I guess there is nothing left but to contact Amigakit support about a refund or repacement.

Thank you for your help.
