Right been pulling my hair out trying to get this lot to work, cost me £50 and I can't get anywhere without it failing.

I have an OS Install, Kickstart ROMS (installed) and Workbench 3.1 floppies.

the flash cart 4gb is formatted sent from amiga kit with the adapter, cables etc with a red line.

That's in as far as I can tell. but nothing shown on the partition table however I tried install and it asked for "install workbench" then "system workbench" over and over. It was 12% complete with me swapping floppy disks every 2 seconds, then <something> 3.1 was full and I can't continue.

I have no about any of this first time trying to upgrade. I was supplies documentation but it just says "install this and once you're done, reset the amiga"

I NEED help badly. Preferably skype so its instant because I'm getting annoyed..

It's just on a ide to flash cart adapter or something? I read about master and slave and worried I need ANOTHER adapter and it's doing circles in my head. I don't wanna give up but I am 100% lost.
