Installing PFS III on Amiga with a Vampire V2 +
Hello all, I don't know if anyone else has had this issue but its got to be something I am doing wrong and I don't really understand how to set it right. I wanted to use a 80GB IDE 2.5" HDD in my A500, for easiness sake I used the folowing steps
1) WinUAE set up with 3.1 ROM 040 CPU (Same as my A500) 2) Using WB 3.9 and PSF III 3) I use 3.9 HDToolBox, add the file system pfs3_aio-handler and I use the identifier 0X50465303 4) I partition the drive with DH0 being the first and being under 4GB ( not sure if I can bake just 1 partition or not) 5) save settings and reset the machine 6) format the drives and start installing 3.9 Then the errors start, for example The file "MULTIVIEW" is protected from deletion can the file be deleted and/or overwritten? Options are delete or skip file This happens a few times even on a blank HDD then things get worse like file or folder cannot be deleted because its in use - even on new folders Running out of ideas, this happens before I even get the HDD back into the A500 ( which id does exactly the same and have even tried installing 3.9 whilst being on the A500) Any ideas? |

Are you installing 3.9 from a CD/ISO image or is it unpacked to your HD somewhere, or what?

Did you use A600/A1200 IDE settings on WinUAE and real scsi.device instead of uaehf.device? Note OS3.9 BB2 scsi.device is buggy with the large drives.

I tried running it as an ISO in in 10 Virtual drive which seems to work fine on 4GB and I also stuck the contents of the CD onto one of the HDD partitions inside the A500 but both had the same result

Alternatively, if you copy the files over to a directory in the HD, you must use the protect command to add +rwed bits to every file. |

I just checked, its set to A600/A1200/A4000 IDE but the SCSI I am using the one off the disc. On the SCSI.device it comes up as version 43.34 Last edited by Seblington; 19 January 2018 at 11:57. |

You should be safe with your 80GB IDE and V600/1200IDE + scsi.device 43.24.

I also just tried creating an emergency boot disk, booting with that running a hard copy of the CD and it boots up all nice and well but when I go to install the drive it only recognizes it as 25GB, |

You should have v43.35 with emergency boot disk.

Hello, yes 43.35 is with the emergency disk, the vampire is still running core 2 ( will upgrade when the next big one comes out

Why are you postponing the core update? It takes a minute to do it and there are usually quite a few bugfixes and new features in each new core.
