Question
Hello as per your answer I did acquire a set of 3.0 boot disks, and a set of 3.0 adf files. I'm still having the same problem, winuae sees the hd and boots from it, the amiga does not. the little adapter has failed, so I can't test the hd for the time being, I still have had no luck with the hd (an 82mb IBM drive from a deceased laptop)
Hi Robert,
I'm not at all familiar with WinUAE, but I would hope that it hasn't done anything to 'adapt' the hard drive to its mode of emulation such that the Amiga can't see it. If that's not the case, then I'm afraid I don't know what the problem may be. You could try posting your question on comp.sys.amiga.misc or comp.sys.amiga.hardware, as there may well be someone there familiar with WinUAE and its operation:

| Comment | There was supposed to be a method of installing workbench on the hd through WinUAE which is an amiga emulator, it was supposed to be as simple as putting the hd back in the amiga as soon as I was done. decided to order the stock floppy drive(the modified floppy died last night) the floppy cable, the HD cable, and replace the kick 3.0 roms with kick 3.1 roms. also have ordered workbench 3.1 (New)to go with it. hopefully this should fix the amiga entirely. | ||

I certainly don't know everything about the Amiga, but having been a user of several different models for about fifteen years, I'm willing to share what I know.
