A.C.U. Utilities Disks

Snoopy1234 · 23 October 2022, 06:32

A friend of mine was a member of Omega V a subgroup of Australian Crackers United back in the day. We shared a few disks....
One such disk was A.C.U. Utilities Disk #2. It had version .52 of Utilimaster on it. Since selling my Amiga stuff in the '90's I no longer have access to these. I'd like to have a set of A.C.U. Utilities disks 1-10. Disks 7 and 9 are on the EAB server. Anyone with adf's of these?
Thx.

I may have a fair chance of having a few of those disks..

but I have that many to image it's not funny...

When I get back from work in a week or so I'll try and make a point of flicking through a few thousand and see if I can find any for you..

That would be great. Much appreciated.

No hassles at all mate.

Thanks to another thread I now have #1, #2, #3, #7, #8, #9 and #10
Disk 2 has Utilimaster 0.52 according to disk #10 catalogue but the Zoned #2 image is missing that program. From memory UtiliMaster 0.52 is where Amiga System Monitor is on the menu. Different version?

Nice find!

I've been going through a some disks trying to locate some but no luck as of yet.

I've zoned ADF's of #23 and #29

Checked all sectors/files for Viruses with VirusZ III and latest update, nothing found, however, ACU #23 has some virus bootblock files on the disk in the BootBlocks & BVF folders so probably came with one of the utils on the disk?

Also, ACU #29 has no protection bits set for l/ram-handler!

I have collected more ACU utility disk adf's than what is on that turran link.

I've uploaded them to my folder on the FTP to add to that location.

Thank you

I've moved the (unpacked) files over to the folder.
