supamax: yeah, Primi Passi is original, it's the copy that came with my A500 in 1990 or 1991... the disk is ecru and the p.n. is printed on the label. as for the dat that gets from domping them with catweasel, as prowler says, is the CRC, but of these disks, the WB 1.3, Extras disk and possibly a couple of the 3.0 ones have been data written on it (from the preferences to mountlists etc) so the CRC wouldn't be reliable. i will check the Primi Passi disk though, and see if the others are still readable. |

The Eyetech items were bought as a complete "Amiga Workbench Version 3.0 Replacement Disk Set". All these disks have Eyetech labels attached. In all cases their labels, which read "Disk Number 1 of 5, Disk Number 2 of 5, etc.", are stuck over the top of the disks' original labels. All but one of the disks were originally from an Escom Amiga Workbench 3.1 set. The original label on "Disk Number 2 of 5" has been ripped off. This "Replacement Disk Set" does not include an Install disk, so Eyetech included their own "Eyetech A1200 Hard Drive Partitioning & WB Installation Disk". Again, their own label is stuck on top of the disk's original label, which is not identifiable. They have applied a barcode and Serial Number, presumably unique, to the disk label. I hope this answers your question. prowler |

Hey Marco!
I'm glad you got it working, mate. That Catweasel sure is a frustrating device at times. prowler Last edited by prowler; 07 February 2009 at 18:08. |

WOW, thanks Marco!
I'm adding the following CRC32's, which I collected during the last 2 years by browsing on many websites, lists, datas, ecc. I'm almost certain they are right (I checked so many sources... I'm a sort of maniac ) but of course I'll give them an orange color in the list, until someone else confirms them . workbench 1.1 (v31.334) $34904C0E A1000 workbench 1.2 (v33.56) $ABF7A475 A2000 workbench 1.3.2 (v34.28) $CCA80FD9 A500/2000 workbench 1.3.2 (v34.28) $B73033C0 United Kingdom A500/2000 workbench 1.3.3 (v34.34) $F676D4DB extras 1.3.3 (v34.34) $1A4789C3 install 2.1 (v38.35) $D61709BB workbench 2.1 (v38.35) $6BAFBACD extras 2.1 (v38.35) $2EB06588 locale 2.1 (v38.35) $E8D1AFB0 fonts 2.1 (v38.35) $036BD466 install 3.0 (v39.29) $6FA2D2B4 A1200/4000 workbench 3.0 (v39.29) $A4D9752D A1200/4000 workbench 3.0 (v39.29) $707737FD A1200/4000 extras 3.0 (v39.29) $95DA642D A1200/4000 storage 3.0 (v39.29) $0C8C24D5 A1200/4000 locale 3.0 (v39.29) $67835FE5 A1200/4000 fonts 3.0 (v39.29) $D7364BB4 A1200/4000 workbench 2.04 (v37.67) $02D77D99 The following are from my physical floppies, but I'm not sure they are unmodified.

Now that it's finally OK to post, here are the CRC32 checksums of the ADF images dumped from my Workbench 1.x disks. No promises here regarding their validity. They are old disks, some with stained labels which are barely legible. Not one of these have I had from new. Some checksums may be OK, but there are some disks here you would think should be identical, yet they have different checksums.
Workbench 1.3 UK Release 1.3.1 version 34.25 WORKBENCH 1.3 - $58363C46 (P/N 317789-01) Extras 1.3 / Basic 1.2 International A500/A2000 EXTRAS 1.3 - $2F9CEA9F (P/N 317788-01) Workbench 1.3 UK Release 1.3.2 version 34.28 WORKBENCH 1.3 - $C5692F06 (P/N 317789-03) Workbench 1.3.2 UK Release 1.3.2 version 34.28 WORKBENCH 1.3.2 - $C9A13FE7 (P/N 317789-03) Workbench 1.3.2 English A500/A2000 Release 1.3.2 version 34.28 WORKBENCH 1.3.2 - $419D5197 (P/N 317789-03) Workbench 1.3.3 English A500/A2000 Release 1.3.3 version 34.34 WORKBENCH 1.3.3 - $A7CF56D0 (P/N 317789-04) Extras 1.3.3 International A500/A2000 version 34.34 EXTRAS 1.3.3 - $E8EB34C4 (P/N 367618-01) This completes my contribution in terms of the checksums of disks I own. prowler |

@ prowler
Thanks for your "The Very First" confirmation, and for Eyetech info . What was Eyetech? A distributor? Mmmm... I suspect this is a noob question (shame on me) EDIT: and thanks for your last post too! Last edited by Supamax; 07 February 2009 at 22:37. |

Eyetech was an Amiga developer and reseller. A developer in that it developed the AmigaOne, and a reseller in that it was a UK dealer in new Amiga equipment from Commodore and later Escom. It also offered a repair and upgrade service. When it folded (a couple of years ago AFAIK), its remaining stock went to Amigakit UK. prowler |

@ prowler
Thanks, very interesting! I probably read about it and forgot (let's say that ). @ all I slightly changed - for editing reasons - the font used in the list. I then noticed that: - with Firefox it's viewed Ok - with Internet Explorer, it's hard to see the difference between the bold green and the normal green For this reason, I changed the normal green to blue. |

I am quite pleased to see someone is organizing this, though my approach was going to be considerably more SPS-like. Since I've been kicking around ideas and code for this for 3 years but never actually did anything with/about it, I'm thankful for you guys.
Greg Donner collected a *LOT* of information on Workbench, including part numbers: http://www.gregdonner.org/workbench/ And remember there were at least two sets of 3.1 - one was specific to the A4000T (workbench.library) and I believe had both a custom Installer and Workbench disk. Also, don't forget "retail" SuperKickstarts! For a while (at least 2.01?-2.04), SKS A3000s had commercial SKS disks shipped to registered owners. Ditto Kickstart disks for the A1000. They should not be left out! Rodney |

Yes, Greg's website is one of my reference sites, along with some other useful sites with very interesting data. I'll copy the links here this evening for reference (I have to search on my hard disks). I didn't find the time (yet) to utilize all the data from these sites (including Greg's, of course) About SuperKickstarts, you are right of course . I will not forget or leave out-of-list anything useful or related to the topic. Any contribution of any kind will be gladly and thankfully accepted |

My Amigas and disks are unfortunately buried very deep in storage, but I hope to rectify that this summer.
One other thing to consider is the wealth of utility/driver disks Commodore produced - for the A2090/A2091, A590, A2024, etc., etc. Not sure if they are considered 'in scope', but they were important nonetheless. Rodney |

Thanks to the photo from twizzle (see thread http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=44163), I updated the list which was missing the P/N of the original Commodore-Amiga WB 3.0 INSTALL disk.

are you sure of the 310xxx-01 P/N? I know it's a strange question, but I can't find any reference to these part numbers on the Net... Also, they would seem very low P/N... Sorry for this late question, but I'm making a big correction to the list and I found this part numbers very strange Last edited by Supamax; 26 April 2009 at 01:54. |

I'll check the part numbers when I get home this evening. |
