English Amiga Board - View Single Post - CF won't boot A1200

Thomas,

The tutorial I followed had me partition & format the disk/volumes on the amiga, then move the CF to a card reader and do the rest under WinUAE - so I never tested an initial boot.

The card is seen in HDToolbox on the Amiga.

I have a 128MB, 512MB, 1GB Kingston CF and a 1GB SanDisk CF < this one has the customized ClassicWB that I'd like to eventually boot on the real hardware.

I tested with the 128MB & 1GB Kingston with partitioning, formatting, and using your command line to copy the Workbench files to the CF and they both boot just fine on the Amiga.

I suppose next step is to try it on the SanDisk...
