WTB: Amiga Kickstart disk

Do you actually need a Catweasel to do that or just a way to get the disk files to a real amiga?

What's a Catweasel? Is it anything like a Dogferret?

 

I have an Amiga, too, that I haven't powered up in years, and I had lent my Kickstart disks to a friend who said they were unreadable, so I might need to make a Kickstart disk, too, but I don't have a Catweasel.

You need a way to get an ADF to the Amiga, bit of a nasty chicken/egg scenario. If you can prepare a HD in WinUAE (and have an HD capable Amiga setup) you can shortcut it. ;)

 

The Catweasel allows PCs to read/write ADFs directly to floppies.

Ahh because I use a CF Card to transfer files to my Amiga. It works great. Then I use a program to write ADF files to disks.

Yes, I use Amiga Explorer to drag/drop read/write floppies on the Amiga from the PC. Which also is quite neat :)

 

You can use transwarp to do ADF read/write stuff over a null modem serial, but you need Workbench to load transwarp so...
