NDOS Disks

AliasXZ · 27 March 2008, 20:14

Hey

I have searched but cant seem to find the answer...

How would I read Non-dos disks through workbench?
I want to be able to launch the disks without rebooting the Amiga
Is it even possible?

Cheers for help

if it's for games check out whdload. Search the forums.

i already have WHDLoad and yeah its for an old floppy, I thought that it may be possible to copy the game to my hdd and launch it from there rather than using the floppy

The game it is isnt avail in WHDload (Tetris Pro) hence why Im trying to read the disk

Sorry should of explained above..

I've uploaded a HD friendly version of Tetris PRO to the Zone.

Unpack it to a drawer of your choice, click on the tetris icon and enjoy

Does it work?

AliasXZ · 27 March 2008, 21:50

well, i didnt act get the one out of the zone, i found an ADF and just wrote that to a disk then ran the install script, did it before you posted above

Ah, OK then. Glad you sorted it out.

NDOS disks = No DOS disks, so you cannot read a filesystem from Workbench.

For such disks usually only booting them helps.

But as I've seen you found alternatives for the game you were looking for.
