WinUAE HDD boot ok, but not on real A600

[simon_m74]

Hi,

I have a copied an Amiga 3000 drive, to a flash card, using HDClone.

The flash card boots ok on WinUAE - the same as the original SCSI drive does. When I boot to workbench first, I can browse the files on the flash card, again the same as I could with the original drive and a HDF I made from it.

So I know the flash card file structure is good.

When I put it in the Amiga 600 via a PCMCIA card adapter, it does not recognize the drive ?

I have tried the flash card back in WinUAE, on an A600 config, as well as an A3000 config - both load it ok .

Doe anyone one know why I cant view it on my A600 ? I need to be able to modify the files - and I think this is the only way!

Thanks

Simon

The system default carddisk.device used for the PCMCIA port does not support CF cards, which is why someone made compactflash.device (look for 'cfd' on Aminet).
You should be able to use this to mount the drive in workbench to access the files. Alternatively you can get a CF-IDE adapter, connect it to the internal IDE port and boot from it. You won't need any additional drivers then.

Thanks,

I`ll go looking!

I already have a 4gb internal CF HDD.

Thanks
