Guest LiqMat Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 (edited) Noticed on my older Amiga 2000 (v1.2 ROM) it will not recognize a HD ADF image on my Lotharek drive. (In this case a HD floppy image created using ADF Opus and using this drive: http://lotharek.pl/product.php?pid=122) So I ran emulation to see what does and it looks like roms 2.04 and above have no problems with it. Basically Workbench 1.3.3 coupled with the 1.2 rom will not recognize the HD ADF image. Same problem in emulation as well with the same setup so I bump it up to 2.04 rom in emu and then it reads the HD ADF image. So anything sub 2.0 will not recognize an HD floppy image? Does that sound right? About to purchase updated roms and want to make sure. I want to go as low as I can go because I only use this 2000 for the old games. Do I have to buy v2.x roms specifically for the 2000 OCS or will any 2.x rom do? Been out of the Amiga scene for decades so... thanks for any help.

Guest LiqMat Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Worked it out. New roms on the way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinphaltimus Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) Sorry, I don't know much about the roms and their limitations. Edited May 25, 2017 by Sinphaltimus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.Cade Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Correct. Older ROMs will have no idea how to handle HD disks natively, but you might be able to mount them with a custom mount list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
