Install command

mai · 09 December 2009, 15:02

If i remember right the "Install" command installs a FD disk, so this disk is bootable.
Now, if i install a disk with WB3.0, then this disk dont start with KS1.3 right?
How can i install a disk in WB3.0 , which starts with KS1.3 too?
Any command line options?

A floppy 'installed' with WB 3.x will boot just fine with KS 1.3

Isn't it more to do with how the disk is formatted? Like if you formatted it as a FFS disk and set International Mode or whatever (like you can in DOpus) then you can't use it under 1.3.

Then it seems to be an other problem.
I have just tried to make a disk bootable, where the bootblock is missing.
I have typed in CLI "install DF0:" without any option, and the disk starts with Kick 3.0, but not with Kick 1.3, mh strange.

Does it just show the hand-with-disk or does it open a AmigaDOS screen with kick 1.3?

I guess you can easily answer that question yourself since the disk doesn't boot =)

Not KS 1.x booting = not OFS formatted.

That seems to be the problem.
KS2.0 works too, but not KS1.x, thanks.

Was just checking if 'doesn't boot' means doesn't boot or doesnt start the game/demo
