Entry 20th October 2024: Post 1: Amiga CD library - Extensive resource.
Amiga CD library - Extensive resource.
If you own an Amiga or if you don't there is really no excuse for
not at least using the emulator. The joy with the emulator is that
you can set the configuration to auto-detect CDs that you insert
in your drive. This enables CD discs to be activated immediately
they are inserted into the PC. The joy is that there is no special
file structure for Amiga CDs that prevent a conventional CD drive
from reading Amiga discs.
Amiga CD discs are filled to the brim with useful resources. The
Aminet sets of discs are particularly useful for all kinds of
Amiga related files. All you need really is say DOpus set to view
the CD by configuring the drive buttons. Make sure you have LHA in
the C drawer for creating LHA files when necessary and configure a
button to create LHA files from the interface. DOpus already handles
the unarchiving process as part of the software.
Amazingly the Amiga will recognise any CD that you bung in the drive
so there really are unlimited possibilities in respect to data
transfer from CD libraries that come up on auction houses. It is
never too late to start collecting CDs for the Amiga.
