Harddrive folders and 4 drives

Unread post by Aslak3 »

I'm not really much of an Amiga emulation expert, I've dabbled in UAE on my Linux box but that's all. One of the things that seems to be missing from this gorgeous core is the ability to present an OS directory as a harddisk to the Amiga. Are there any plans to add this? I've really struggled with turning a tree into a disk image using UAE! Using the filesystem is so easy. I'm hoping this can be added some time?

Also, are there any plans to expose DF2/3?

Cheers!

Hi Lawrence,
Not sure I well understand your question but if you're looking how to add two disk drives, it is already implemented since a while, You've the possibility to remove or add DF2 & DF3 via the OSD,Don't know by heart the keys to be pressed but to my recollection it is + and - when you're in disk selection
Pay attention that this consumes some memory to the Amiga as on real machine

Although this core does not support mounting OS directory as real harddisk for Amiga (eg. you cannot use it to install OS itself), there is possibility to use Shared Folder functionality which is pretty much the same and can be used for transferring files.
