Sounds funny but this one is still being sold, anyway use MSD95 from Aminet, it is faster and far ahead of ANY CrossDos Version out there (and it´s freeware) : http://ftp.uni-paderborn.de/aminetbin/find?msd95

Except for write capabilities...

That looks good, I hate the 8+3 MS-DOS file format.

Yeah well, we can all thank Bill gates for this short sightedness.

Just like... "640K of ram will be enough for everyone"

I can't get it to work. All I get is software failure.

Read the docs and followed them, I also edited the mount list like it says in the example. Could be because I’m trying to use it with winuae?

I’m not too bothered as I do have multidos Installed.

What about Uncle Bill's famous statement around Windows 95's launch that you needed at least 4meg of RAM to multitask!
Would've loved an Amiga nut to walk in on a press launch with an A600 or even an old 512K A500, run the basic demo's & told him to shove it up his butt!!

He talks from the arse, like most people on the biz. That's no news.
A group of 100 Amigans loaded with A500s should go to their next press conference and show them what a real computer is

What's wrong with Crossdos? I mean, all it's needed for is reading from and writing to PC 720K disks, right? What more features can a different program have?

@alkis21

Who said there is something wrong with it

It´s just not freeware, that´s all

I got the original version of crossdos 6 and as far as I know it´s round about ten years old (or older). There´s a new version called crossdos 7, which is still sold.

haynor666 · 09 February 2003, 08:22

But FAT 95 works great and I don't need CrossDOS anymore.

gunatm · 09 February 2003, 10:58

Right! It´s a great soft!

andreas · 23 February 2003, 23:04

Ehm ... does anyone of you know which CrossDOS version still supports Kickstart 1.3?

Forget the new ones ... they all only support OS 2.0 or higher.
