Making cf_ClassicWB_FULL.hdf bigger?
Sorry for my noobness, please bare with me.
I got the cf_ClassicWB_FULL.hdf booting in Winuae, so I managed to install it (wb files etc.) properly (I plan to use a cf-card with a pcmcia-to-cf adapter with A1200 to hold the hdf-image) Now I don't understand how can I make the original hdf bigger to "hold" my whdload games (it's only 200 MB)? I got the impression that hdf-images can't be resized and that I should simply create a new hdf-image and copy the contents from the cf_ClassicWB_FULL.hdf. I then stumbled across some info on hidden files that cannot be copied in WB, which seems a bit daunting for a noob like me. Have I understood correctly so far? How do I do the create new-copy contents -procedure in practice? |

It's totally straight forward. Just create a larger HDF as you mentioned, mount it as DH1: in WinUAE and ClassicWB as the bootable DH0, boot then launch Dopus.
Select all the files in the left hand window DH0: and copy them across to the right hand window DH1: Dopus will show and copy all files, including hidden. As for using a HDF on a CF card - that's not my area of expertise! |

@Bloodwych - I was going to ask exactly the same question on here, so thankyou!
BTW - I have installed ClassicWB Full on my emulated A1200 with 8MB Fast RAM and it works a treat, so cheers for that too! |
