I need to create a real Workbench 1.3 disk to test some of my 1.3 Amigas.

The only Amigas I have with hard drives are a 1200 and 600. So what I'd like to do is transfer WB1.3 to my Amiga 1200 (via CF) and make an actual, bootable 1.3 disk for my 500's and 2000 Amigas.

I purchased the Amiga Forever a few years ago so I should be all legit.

Is it just a matter of formatting a real disk and dragging the files over? Or do I need to compress anything?

Suggestions appreciated.

Thanks!
