Don – For the benefit of other readers I would just like to add, that it is also essential to transfer the latest version of AREAD and AWRITE from the JANUS Disk accompagning the AT Board, even if you have only an XT. This seems to be a newer version, that will properly work with the new PC-Bridge software on the Amiga side. Using the old version will send the Amiga into a GURU-Crash. Amiga and PC are now autobooting and the usual filetransfers are operational. – Alfred(Calling from Thalwil near Zurich, Switzerland)

Alfred, Yes…if you move up to Janus v2.0, you must move ALL of the software over, just like a new install. Don

Don, I found also to my great pleasure that the new AREAD and AWRITE transfer the special charcters now correctly. This is of some importance if you write occasionally in French or German. BTW, installation of automatic clock transfer proved to be simple. I included a run of the Function TimeServ in the startup-sequence and the corresponding command ATIME in the autoexec.bat file on the PC side. So all is automatic now. Two computers booting from the same HD, with its partition each. – Alfred
