DMS to Amiga?

grizzlyaddams · 14 May 2015, 22:06

I am having trouble installing my Dataflyer SCSI/IDE using the disks that came with it. Everything runs and there are no errors when running the install disk but it cannot successfully mount or format my HD.

I want to try the newest version of the install disk and I have a DMS file of it, but what is the best way to get that file from my Windows PC to my Amiga?

Or better yet just write the DMS to disk.

I've seen threads that state to use dms111.run to write the dms file to the disk on the amiga, but I don't know the best way to get the dms111.run or .dms file to the amiga itself. I have no hard drive yet. I'm trying to install it.

just download ADF workshop on EAB (search DMS workshop). It will pass your DMS as ADF on your PC, and you will be able to write it back on disk.

Thank you so much. I have a GOTEK floppy emulator all up an running on my Amiga so when I get home I can just convert DMS to ADF and be good to go!

Thanks again!
