Drives look near full but not quiet (we think)

Are we correct in saying that we can use the multiview.dir command on our version 38 of workbench to view our created dir.txt file? As for our previous error messages, a lack of disk space rather than RAM would make more sense as we have a 4MB Fast Ram expansion board, which should be sufficient for those requested tasks. Even though we are using an internal 4GB CF, the previous owner has installed thousands of WHDLoad games which can be found in the DH2 and even our DH1 (work) folder. Thanks again for the help Last edited by clitosa; 10 December 2012 at 23:34. |

Conclusions
Okay thanks - so, drawing conclusions.
Best way to search for files on WB is by using the Shell/CLI and typing: search DH(n): all file (name) For printing a directory text file, enter the following in Shell/CLI cd ram: (redirecting to the RAM disk ideal as it wipes when rebooted and is not the reason behind the experienced error messages) list dh(n): all >ram:dir.txt (to create txt file of (n) drive in the RAM disk folder) ed dir.txt (WB2+) multiview dir.txt (WB3+) - to view the created file. That said, in our case somebody has renamed the AmigaGuide program into multiview, so this command can be used on our version of WB2.1 (pic 3 of post 16) Further questions regarding our HD will be started on a new thread. Thanks to everyone for their help |
