- OK, I'm trying to Install the System 7.0.1 disks.
-
- I copied them to the Mac partition I set up on my Zip disk.
-
- When I run Binhex to unBinhex them,and select the "Upload->Application"
- choice, I get a end of file error or something like that. It won't do it.
- If I select the opposite "Application -> Upload" choice, it does it. It
- makes a .Hqx file of the already .hqx file.
-
- A friend suggested that the Resource fork wasn't being read.
-
- I got the System disks by ftp using Amosaic on my Amiga. I dl'd them my
- Amiga. They were in .hqx format. My friend suggested using an Amiga
- Binhex program to unbinhex them and THEN copy them to my Mac partition.
- Then I should be able to read the Resouce file in order to unBinhex them
- on the Mac side. And continue the Install.
-
- BTW,I am using the SSBootfile.
-
- Another thing: I seem to be dreadfully low on Ram when I'm trying to
- Insatll this. I heve 2Chip/8Fast Ram and thought this would be adequate to
- run SS and Photoshop. I selected 'allocate Macrom first' and I also had
- checked off 'use any ram' and the other choice also ( I can't remember
- what it as...)
-
- I also have the AmigaAGA-EVD 2.0 as my videodriver.
-
- The refresh/redraw is slow unless I use 2 colors.
-
- Why is my memory being eaten up so much and why is the refresh slow. I
- thought the EVD driver was suppose to be better... Am I expecting too much??
-
- BTW, I am registered.
-
- All help appreciated.
