Siamese 2.5 and 68060 browser

03 January 2008, 02:15

Hey! Finally got my A1200 + Blizz 060 online with wifi!

Can anyone re-up Siamese 2.5 (ethernet version), along
with any 68060 capable web browser? Aweb isn't cutting it..
:-)

Also: anyone know of an easy way to share files from the amiga to pc / vice versa?
Cheers!

If someone doesn't beat me to it I'll up S-RTG when I get home.

Easy file sharing:
Seems to me this is either easy to set up but no so convenient or a swine to set up & then conenient.

The former:
-Floppies
-2.5' HDD to USB adapter for PC. Pull A1200 HDD, connect to PC & use WinUAE for access.
-CF Adaper for both PC & Amiga. Use CF as the miggy's HDD & UAE for the PC end.

The middle:
AmigaExplorer (Cloanto) - PC & Amiga ends handle the communications. Need working network connection.
S-RTG will do much the came thing once set up. (You can also mount PC dir's on Workbench)

The Latter:
Set up SAMBA (& probably SMBFS) on the miggy. You'll then get transparent filesharing / printserving in both directions across network. V. nice!
BUT...
...OMG! What a swine to set up!!!

Unhelpful comment:
I've pretty much given up surfing from AmigaOS...
AWeb-II isn't so bad. I guess IBrowse is currently the best of the bunch.

(Firefox has been ported to RiscOS as a one-man project, so why not AmigaOS? Beyond me TBH)
