DOS HD in my A1200

[Kenny Anderson]

I finally gave up on the Amiga a year ago, and bought a Mac G4 (don't flame
me please; I put 9 years into the Amiga, and got 8 happy years back). I've
still got my towered A1200 here, with a hard drive full of useful stuff I'd
like to transfer to my Mac for use with UAE.

Now as you all know, the G4 is floppy-less, and I don't have a Zip drive
either. The lack of serial ports on the G4 and USB ports on the Amiga rules
that out, so what I'd like to do is use a DOS formatted hard disk, mount it
on the Amiga, copy all the stuff onto it, move the drive to the Mac and dump
it on the G4's drive.

The Mac mounts DOS volumes fine, but I'm not sure how well it's going to
work in the Miggy. Looking in :Storage/DOSDrivers, there's a file called
PCHD0.info, but no mountlist to go with it. Bearing in mind my workbench has
been upgraded all the way from WB1.2 to 3.1, it could be something that I
was fiddling around with in 1996 and never got working.

Does anyone know if this will work? If so, do they have the mountlist for
PDHD0 (or anything) that will mount an IDE DOS-volume drive in the Miggy, so
I can carry on playing Poing and Cannon Fodder on my Mac?

Thanks in advance,
