ClassicWB v28 - Assign-Startup and 2nd partition issue
Hi all,
I'm pulling my hairs off trying to add a couple of drives with games to Assign-Startup and then generate GamesMenu.menu via AddGames script Maybe some will be able to help me and point me what I'm doing wrong here. Here are the details: 1. I Have a ClassicWB3.9 (v28) with BB1&2 installed. 2. I have created a couple more PFS3-AIO RDB HDF <4GB drives for demos, games and other stuff:
Partition "Games1" contains "Games" folder with WHDLoad games (A-P folders) Partition "Games2" contains "WHDLoad/Games" folders with WHDLoad games (Q-Z folders) My Assign-Startup file looks like this: Code:
;ClassicWB Assign-Startup ;------------------------ ;GAAE 68K LITE FULL ADV ADVSP P96 OS39 Assign >NIL: A-Demos: Demoscene:Demos Assign >NIL: A-Games: Games1:Games Assign >NIL: A-Games: Games2:WHDLoad/Games ADD Assign >NIL: A-MyFiles: SYS:MyFiles Assign >NIL: A-Programs: SYS:Programs Assign >NIL: A-Temp: SYS:Temp After booting up the machine, when I run "assign list", I can see that assign ADD was successful: Code:

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here? I assume it's a typical PEBCAK - problem exists between chair and keyboard Last edited by Tomarkus; 27 January 2018 at 20:34. |

No need to create lots of partitions. The 4GB limit is per drive, not partition.
So only the first partition needs to be within first 4GB. If you have patched your system so you can use a large drive, you can also use large partitions. (See FAQ in signature) |

fgh, thanks for your reply. I've made a mistake here - these are not partitions, but drives - Game1 is a single-partition 3,5GB drive, as well as Games2. I have edited my 1st post accordingly.
