Please can someone help with WHDLoad for Hoi Demo from Amiga Action 37

Please could someone make a WHDLoad for Hoi Demo from
Amiga Action Coverdisk 37 here:
(amr.abime.net/issue_110_coverdisks)

The Demo (files HOIDEMO and HOIDEMO2) prevents you from copying
it and also does these 2 things as well:

1) Hard locks to DF0: so you cannot use it from any other device at all

2) Appears to have Copy Protection? where it checks the Bootblock
for the weird number on it for the Demo to boot (otherwise it just
hammers DF0: constantly without loading)

Please could someone WHDLoad this for me

Many Thanks

Well I didn't know cover-disks were copy protected so I've learn't something.

It seems disk 37 on EAB server is copied with bamcopy and doesn't work in WinUAE, AF or any of the WHDLoad generic slaves. I tried though.

The disk must be loaded under Kickstart 1.3 then it will work fine for you

It does work for me if I keep in the bootblock, but ideally I do want to be
able to run it from HDD and it has some kind of copy protection as it
hammers DF0: checks for that bootblock, then it will load Hoi perfectly fine

Strange because I had a kickstart 1.2 machine and that disk worked just fine for me on the real thing.

I think he's saying it doesn't work for anything above KS1.3
