By this time next week I will have a PAR and will have called in sick to
my day job at least twice. To make sure I don't make it three days I'd
like to ask a few questions regarding the PAR and file access.
I understand that the PAR has a dedicated hard drive hooked up to it. My
question is, can AmigaDOS access this drive? If I generate a ton of
frames can they be written directly to the PAR drive? If I want ADPro to
manipulate the frames, can ADPro get to the PAR drive? Am I going to
have to set up more than one partition on the drive; one for frames, one
for animation? If so, what's the most practical split?
Once I get this thing in, I'm sure all this info is in the manual, but I
want to minimize my time with the manual. I'm behind schedule on Jurassic
Park II. :)
Thanks in advance.
