Summary
Below are the various drivers required to be able to transfer files to the Amiga.
CFD
The CFD drivers allows you to use Compact Flash cards in the PCMCIA slot.
Download it from Aminet at:
http://aminet.net/driver/media/CFD133.lha
Extract the CFD133.lha file and copy the CFD133/DEVS/compactflash.device file to Devs: on your Amiga:
Devs:compactflash.device
Also, copy CFD133/DEVS/CF0 and CFD133/DEVS/CF0.info to Devs:DosDrivers on your Amiga:
Devs:DosDrivers/CF0
Devs:DosDrivers/CF0.info
FAT95
The FAT95 drivers allows you to use FAT16 or FAT32 formatted Compact Flash cards.
Download it from Aminet at:
http://aminet.net/disk/misc/fat95.lha
Extract the fat95.lha file and copy the fat95/l/fat95 file to L: on your Amiga:
L:fat95
CardReset/CardPatch (A1200, <Kickstart 3.1.4 only)
This is only applicable to A1200's with Kickstarts lower than 3.1.4 - i.e. Kickstart 3.0/3.1/3.X
On the Amiga 1200, there is a hardware bug in Gayle that means the CC_RESET reset signal is not asserted on the PCMCIA slot. CardReset and CardPatch provides a software level reset.
Download them from Aminet at:
http://aminet.net/util/boot/CardPatch.lha
http://aminet.net/util/boot/CardReset.lha
Copy the CardReset and CardPatch files to C:
The S:Startup-Sequence file needs to be updated to include the following commands before LoadWB:
C:CardPatch
Run >NIL: C:CardReset TICKS 50
CrossDOS (Workbench 2.0 and above)
This is optional, if you want to use 720K PC formatted floppy disks.
CrossDOS allows you to use 720K PC formatted floppy disks. The driver files can be found in the Workbench (2.0 and above) EXTRAS and STORAGE disks.
Copy the EXTRAS:L/CrossDOSFileSystem file to L:
For each drive (DF0, DF1) you want CrossDOS to work on, copy the appropriate DOS Driver file from STORAGE:DosDrivers to Devs:DosDrivers
For example, for DF0, copy:
STORAGE:DosDrivers/PC0
STORAGE:DosDrivers/PC0.info
to
Devs:DosDrivers/PC0
Devs:DosDrivers/PC0.info
For DF1 and DF2, you will have to create the PC1 and PC2 files respectively, using the PC0 or PC1 file as a template.
