Using Amiga Forever with AIAB
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

AmigaForever does not come with a Workbench 3.x ADF, and therefore you'll be somewhat
buggered by the time you get to the 'Insert Workbench ADF now' stage.

Cheers Gordon!  So, give it a try - if it works, great...if not then keep reading!

OLD TEXT:
~~~~~~~~

Well, in this folder you'll find a cheap-and-nasty batch file which ought to copy the
AmigaForever OS files to your AIAB setup.  It relies on both AmigaForever and AIAB being
installed to the default locations, so if this is not the case, you can either give up, or
attempt to edit the script yourself.

NB:  You may wish to back up your AmigaForever installation first, before attempting to
~~   execute this script.

  *************************************************************************************
  *  USAGE: Copy this script to the  C:\Program Files\Cloanto\Amiga Forever\  folder! *
  *************************************************************************************

Please note that this is by no means ideal, and that using a proper Workbench 3.x ADF is
still the best option.  However, it ought to enable a few more people to try AIAB.

If anyone out there fancies making a better script, or indeed a Win32 exe specifically for
the job (hey, it could even search for Kickstart 3.x ROMs too!) don't hesitate to contact
me.

Hope it works peeps (let me know if it does) - fingers crossed!
