CD to FH1: cd fhl : - Create a directory which will contain the fake MS-DOS C: drive, then CD to it. For example: makedir PCDrives cd podrives - Run the MakeAB program (installed into your Amiga's C: directory by BridgeInstall) and give it a file name: makeab drivec - MakeAB will now prompt you for the number of Heads, Sectors/Track, and Cylinders of your fake MS-DOS drive. Here are some typical numbers to enter for various size partitions: MEGABYTES BLOCKS HEADS SECTS CYLS 10200 4 17 150 10 20468 4 301 15 30668 4 17 451 20 40936 4 17 602 25 51136 17 752 32 65494 4 17 963 You don't have to use these, but the maximum is 32 meg. - MakeAB will now create the file full size. This can take a *long* time depending on the speed of your hard drive controller. If a "Disk Full" requester appears during this operation, delete the file and choose a smaller size (or delete files you don't need) . Then run MakeA" again. - You may wish to protect this file from accidental deletion once it's been created. Type: protect drivec -d Should you wish to delete the file in the future (when you no longer need it to boot your Bridgeboard) you must type; protect drivec +d before attempting to delete it. - After MakeAB finishes successfully, you must create a file containing the name of the MakeAB'd file so that the Bridgeboard can find it when it's booting. If you have a text editor, you can use it to edit the file " SYS : PC/ System/Aboot . ctrl" - DON'T use a word processor unless it has a "pure ASCII" mode. Two text editors {Ed and MEmacs) can be found on your Workbench or Extras disks. The file SYS : PC/System/Aboot . ctrl must contain the full name of the file created by MakeAB (fhl : PCDrives/drivec in our example) .
