ClassicWB Lite - i dont get how to "install" so i dont need WB3.1 ADF
OK, so got the HDF, got teh ADF, got the roms, own a real amiga 1200 so not fussed about d/l all this stuff, got winuae, chose a1200, 4 meg fast ram, mounted the hdf and the adf in the relevant palces.. WorkBench boots off the floppy and I now have 2 questions:
How do i do the "install" so that classicwb hdf will boot itself without needing the wb3.1 adf? How do I make the HDF bigger so I can start whacking WHDLoad packs into it from killergorilla? Thanks guys |

1. To boot the HDF file you simply need to click "Bootable" option under the Hardfile options (once you add it)
2. There is no need to make an bigger HDF ![]() Apart from that and if you wanna resize the partition (lets say 1GB) you can do it making an 1GB empty HDF, formating it, and then from a CLI: 1> copy DH0: DH1: ALL CLONE (assuming that DH0 is your ClassicWB installation and DH1 the new 1GB partition) |

Ahhh.. yea, I'd got confused when CLassicWB said it needed a real WB disk - i didnt realise that the image itself is bootable and it boots into a copy script. Maybe the install instructions could be made more clear, for people like me who remember a bit from their amiga ownership 20 years ago (oh yeah.. i was a pro, I could even write my own startup-script :P ) and went and put a disk in DF0 and DH0 then booted the emu.. If it was clearly outlined "boot from the image, then press F12 and swap the workbench disk in when prompted" I wouldnt ahve asked my dumb question
![]() ![]() Good idea - i'll shove all the games in a bigger DH1. Now i gotta figure out WHDLoad.. never used that thing before - does it automatically do a relokick/soft replacement kickstart if it's needed? |

![]() You only need the appropriate kickstarts (one Kickstart 1.3 from A500 and one 3.1 from A1200) under DEVS:Kickstarts/ folder (set of .rom and .rtb files) and you're set for the 99% of the games ![]() |
