A BIG Hello to Amiga-addicted lifeforms Everywhere A friend of mine has a 2000 on order. He also got the A2090 HD controller and a 40 Meg HD (obviously he isn't a student :-)). He asked me a question which I could not answer and so I thought I would relay it. With this controller, and the software supplied, what possibilities exist for partitioning the HD into Amy space and MSDOS space?

With that software, and the PCDisk/JLink software supplied with the Bridge card, one can set up a PC virtual disk on the Amiga hard disk (or the Amiga ramdisk, or the Amiga floppy, for that matter). Its a standard PC virtual disk, which means that your PC can't boot off it; but other than that its fine. -- andy finkel {ihnp4|seismo|allegra}!cbmvax!andy Commodore-Amiga, Inc. "Interfere?
