How To Get A600 To Read Compact Flash Card ?

Rich M · 26 April 2005, 08:27

I have an old A600 that I wanted it to read my Compact Flash 512MB card (using PCMCIA CF adapter)

What software or drivers I must load into the A600 first? so that once I slot the PCMCIA CF the a600 is able to read the CF contents.

Thanks

cfd.lha from Aminet does what you're looking for.

BTW, grab FAT95.lha also so you can read PC formated cards.

Thanks so much for the info!

one last newbie question then, the two files I just downloaded, I must put them into which folder in the workbench?

I suppose they come with a readme file inside that tells you how?

In any case, the FAT95.lha probably is a ilesystem so it might go in L or whereer your othr filesystems are, acccompanied with a mountfile that goes in DosDrivers.

the compactflash stuff, i dunno, probably a device as well, that gos in DosDrivers.

RTFM and you should be all right.
