Step by step help lha to adf
Hi,
sorry for asking about this but I google and google and never find a guide that helps me figuring this out. I want to transfer, for example, iff samples downloaded on my real mac to my real gotek equipped amiga 500. The iff samples come in a lha archives. To access them through the gotek they need to be extracted onto an adf file. I read that the smoothest way to achieve this is to use winUAE. Same as FS-UAE? That is what I found for mac anyway. Following this guide: https://amihelper.blogspot.com/2020/...ha-to-adf.html In FSUAE: Insert a blank virtual floppy ("fl1.adf") - DONE Mount a folder as a hard drive ("HD1") - DONE Put the lha archive ("st-01.lha") in this - DONE Start the emulator And now... how do I make this happen? Do I need to load workbench first? Where do I write the command? How to I target the files? Code:
lha x myarchive.lha df0: Optionally show me an easier way. Using osx Terminal? Cheers |

Then boot that Workbench -> Open Shell (CLI) -> type in "LHA X MYARCHIVE.LHA DF0:" and away you go ... of course the files have to fit on one ADF file in size |

Thanks, I managed to extract the lha.run in the hard drive folder. But how do I get workbench on the hard drive? I have only used workbench on floppies. I guess I need to copy/install it in the harddrive?

Put Workbench in DF0: and do a "COPY DF0: TO DH0: ALL CLONE" that should work as a rudimentary WB Installation and then boot from DH0: and copy LHA into the C Folder

Now I can not start the CLI, givens me the this error:
fsuae software failure Line 1111 (F) Emulator/Coprocessor failure attached a screenshot I was messing around with the settings in FS-UAE Launcher to make the emulator run faster (its slower than my real amiga 500...). set 1 mb of slow ram, put the floppy on turbo, etc. I tried to use kickstart 3.1 to install WB3.1, but when that seemed messy I tried to go back. Now even if I reset all the settings in the launcher I can not start CLI from the wb1.3 adf I used from the start. plz help. |

Then start from scratch ...
You'll need : Kick 3.1 Workbench 3.1 (emulated) HDD lha.run any .lha archive FS-UAE has preconfigured Configurations for A1200 with Kick 3.1, start with that ... |

These were floppy discs, long time ago someone packed them to .DMS files, but I can't find my old archive of same ATM. I guess they got packed in .lha archives over the years. The original files are still out there tho'.. https://archive.org/details/AmigaSTX...us_conversions |

A much easier way to do this on a Mac is to download "The Unarchiver" from the Mac app store which will extract the .lha files, and "HXC Floppy Emulator Software" from here https://hxc2001.com/download/floppy_drive_emulator/ which will let you create ADF files then drag and drop files to them directly from Mac OS. You can create and use high density ADFs to fit more files on them at a time.

I tried to get AmigaPal working but it is broken for OSX. It is a shame that I can't the get emulator to a workable state, but now I can survive without. The Unarchiver plus HXC Floppy Emulator Software should be mentioned in a sticky here somewhere! |

Don't known how OSX handles the File attributes (protection bits) maybe they are more identical to one the Amiga use. Just be aware that at least on Windows people usually run sooner than later into issues where for example the Amiga "executable" or "script" bit gets set wrong when unpacked at another Operating System and transferred back that way. Or the case that the "H" bit not actually means "hidden" like almost everywhere else but "hold" on Amiga. |
