For PFS3 installation, see bottom.

This is a quick visual guide to set up a FastFileSystem Hardfile through WinUAE, using either the Non-RDB method (which is NOT compatible with Amiga HD Tools software) or with the RDB mode enabled (enabling you to use your Amiga HD Tools software through WinUAE).

Basically, without RDB mode is faster - takes seconds. With RDB mode selected means you'll have to use HDToolbox to get the drive 'recognised' by the system, in order for you to format it.

NOTE!!: - The boot disk featured in this presentation (including the HD tools) can be downloaded here:

NOTE!!: Since I made this video I was asked "How DO you get the FastFileSystem from your Amiga over to your PC?" Well, you get a blank Double Density disk, and you do it through crossdos. This method is highlighted in the first part of this video guide:
