How to create dual boot CF card?

JackTheKnife · 18 March 2010, 23:19

I want to create dual boot CF card with Classic WB and AmigaSYS. What I need to do? I have only a "naked" A1200 (no HDD, waiting for CF card) and WinUAE with Calssic WB 3.1

Thanks

create partions mark as bootable
set boot priority -128 to +128 + numbers boot first
hold both mouse buttons down on boot to select diffrent boot partion , also worth doing to see boot priority numbers of floppy drives and HDD

quick and dirty guide

Floppy units always have +5 boot priority, so you can select the boot priority of both partitions from 0 to +4 in case you run floppy-based games, or to bypass the system at boot times to clear some problem.

You can also use a little application like RMB & LMB from Aminet to use as a boot selector in the highest priority boot partition's startup-sequence.
