This tutorial explains how to: - Share files between Windows and the Amiga Forever emulation environments
- Copy content from a "real" Amiga to the PC
Directories can be shared between Windows and the Amiga emulation environment by mounting a Windows directory as a virtual Amiga disk drive. To do this right-click any Amiga Forever configuration, select Edit, then go to the Media tab and click Add... Then in the Add Disk dialog select Type: Directory. The Workbench 3.X configuration, listed in the Systems tab of Amiga Forever, illustrates how this works in practice. This configuration has a System and a Work disk volume. To access the content of the Work volume from the Windows side select Tools/Open Amiga Files from the Amiga Forever menu, then click Shared/dir/Work. Remember that by default the Amiga Workbench environment does not show files that do not have an associated icon (.info file). To display files without icons select Show/All Files from the Amiga Workbench menu. The following articles illustrate how to copy data from a non-emulated Amiga computer to the PC: |
