In this episode I will give a quick tutoral on how to Install and Mount an SD Card on the Amiga Vampire A500 and A600 Series Acclerator Cards using the Professional Filesystem and a 16GB Sandisk SD Card.
This is great. An a an actual video about the Amiga where you can clearly see what the person is talking about! Who knew it was possible? Joking aside, this was very helpful. Thanks!
I am glad you liked the Video. I use 1280x720 @ 60Hz, 16 bit, It's a nice compromise for speed and available desktop real estate. The Vampire 600 V2 is nice, I own one as well as my A500 V2.
Great video! I subbed you :) Love Amiga videos, I have some Amigas myself, my precious Amiga 4000 with 060 is the most loved one. I'm running SFS (Smart File System) on that. Don't know which is the best, I assume both are great. I have tried both and they works just fine!
Thanks for Subscribing :) I have several Amigas including several 500's, 600's, 1200's as well as an Amiga 2000. My precious would be my A1200T with a Blizzard PPC/060. A very nice machine indeed.
I have seen these devices and they definitely could come in handy. I use a Compact Flash adapter on my Amiga 2000 that mounts in one of the empty card slots on the back. Preferably, I like things to be mounted or secured somewhere that looks stock. I may buy the SD card adapters and see what I can do with it :)
Excellent & detailed guide, not only for SD card partitioning and format, but got a few useful workbench tips as well in the process. Thank you for this. Quick question: I see sometimes large game shortcuts/launchers directly on the workbench desktop, that launch a game (huge icons with the game artwork in). They look great. Can this be done using workbench or does it require an external utility ?
Thanks. I am glad you liked the video. In regards to your question about large game shortcuts on the Workbench Desktop, can you provide some examples of this?
@@amigaretro4765 I've seen it randomly here and there on some desktops. E.g. this guy here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DAusYvlMrAk.html has a CannonBall icon on the desktop, although it doesn't look as good. Someone had a big rectangle icon of Shadow of the Beast directly on the desktop, with game's artwork in it. Pressing it would simply launch the game, nothing special. But it looked awesome. I think I've also seen it on "normal" workbench desktops, so I assume is not a special feature of coffinOS.
CoffinR54 comes with everything, format your card Fat32 plop it in, on CoffinR54 in the Vampire menu choose SDmount on/Off and boom it appears. it uses l:fat95 driver, P3FS on a MicroSD card has no windows compatibility. the microSD is for transferring files back and forth from your pc to amiga. if you lock it to P3FS its amiga only.
Thanks for your comments. The Coffin OS is indeed a great bundle of Software and does support Fat95 out of the box as you have mentioned. The video is intended as instruction on how to create an Amiga OS DOS Driver using an alternate File System. You will lose cross-platform compatibility for file transfers but since the SD Card is not easily accessible, for me at least, this feature is not very piratical. The Tutorial was based the Apollo Accelerators Public Wiki, located here: wiki.apollo-accelerators.com/doku.php/install_driver_sd
