Ya, I think the reason you can though UAE has something to do with the emulator itself running on the hostOS.

Don't know about Virtual PC, sorry..

Thanx...

I understand the problem for the hard drive. I was just asking because WinUAE does it and it works well (it even create the .info file when you copy from DH0 to windows drive). Maybe it's just because of the emulator.

For the floppy drive, I will try with the AROS-boot floppy.

Just wondering...does anybody try to install AROS with Virtual PC?

I do not believe that you can mount Windows drives in Aros. There isn't any Windows file system support, yet.. A FAT driver is currently being worked on, but I don't know how far along it is. When that is done we should be able to access FAT partitions. That will make it possiable to have a drive read in both Windows and Aros.

Warnder doesn't get disk change notification, again not yet... I don't have a floppy dirve but with a CD. When I am in Warnderer I just do a "warm boot" and when Warnderer comes back up it is there. That might work with floppies also.

Hi,

I've just tried the last iso of AROS-Max. It rocks!

I now want to access the hard drive of my machine. When using WinUAE, you can specify to mount Windows-Disk, but I can't find it in AROS. I tried to use HDTools, but the option Automount is frozen for my hard drive.
So it is my question: can I mount Windows-Disk ion AROS, and how?

Another thing, I put a floppy in my drive and AROS doesn't recognize it...is there any way to make it work?

Thanx in advance.
