WinUAE Amax and .amhd

Hello world,
Is it possible to create an amax partition with WinUAE (>2.6.1) ?
If yes, how ?

With the converter file "Emplant Disk Converter II v7.0 (WB2.1) - PAL WORKING.rar" found in the zone (thanks Supamax) I can retrieve an existing amax booting disk to an extended adf. This extended adf can boot on WinUAE.
All the other things I got for Mac (old programs) are stored on PC disks and have already saved/archived with Emplant.

A-Max II ?
I havent tried but I belive theres a A2091/A590.amhd and WinUae has some support for A2091/A590.

But why not use A-max4, Fusion or Shapeshifter that dont require .amhd
A-Max II< only real advantage is that it works on such a low spec 68000 Kick 1.3.

For me a .amhd allowing me to use a HD on my A600 would be good

Yes A-Max II 2.5 (1992), to emulate a macintosh+ and able to launch 6.0.7 and 7.0 systems.
For A2091, WinUAE seems to need an extra rom...

Hi Gilloo,
you're welcome .

Do you have some A-Max disk images to share with us?

Which procedure did you follow? Perhaps this one (like me with many disks)?
- used the Disk Converter (on real Amiga) to image the real A-Max floppy disks
- used the Disk Converter (in WinUAE) to write back the Converter image files' content to the (custom/extended) .adf files

If so (and I bet it is), I'll write to Jim Drew again! .
