I connected the new 8GB CF Card to the 2.5" IDE to CF Card converter in the A1200 and booted into the ClassicWB environment transferred from the old 4GB Cf Card. The new 1.8GB partition should work great.

The partition wasn't much bigger than this, which made it unworkable for upgrading to AmigaOS3.9 and definitely not able to upgrade to AmiKit Real either. The original Workbench partition on the 4GB CF Card was a ClassicWB installation using 50MB space. In the morning I checked and it was completed. With all this done (which I left running overnight on the saturday night as the number of files is considerable on the Amiga 1200 and Amiga 4000T side to copy across). Important things I also copied across was the AmigaOS3.9 CD contents to a Temp/AmigaOS39 folder, the Boing Bag 3.9-1 and 2 updates, and the AmiKit Real 8.1 setup files to the Workbench partition of the 8GB CF card. I prepped the CF Card using vice in HDToolbox on the Amiga 4000T, using three partitions - 1.8GB UDH0 named Workbench, 3.7GB UDH1 named Data1 and 1.8Gb UDH2 named Data2: I could then copy across the contents I want to use on the Amiga 1200, and there is a lot to do.so I quickly got to work. I wanted to keep this all work confined on the original Amiga hardware as much as possible. I also made the decision to utilise the USB support (via Deneb USB card) on my A4000T to prep the 8GB CF card using a USB CF card reader. I will repurpose another smaller CF card for that role in the future if needed. Besides, the 8GB was wasted there as I really only need 1GB for that card. I already had a 8GB CF Card spare available (which I normally use on the AmigaOne X1000 CF Card slot for booting Linux kernels but haven't used for a long time), so I decided to use that.

467k free.I wanted to do lots with the Amiga 1200 but the CF card being full was a problem I had to address! Why the 8GB CF card? The 4GB CF card supplied to me with the Amiga 1200 was completely full, and I mean full. I put the Amiga 4000T IDE connectors back on the Buddha card and booted it up straight away as normal, proving that the IDE ports work fine. So I decided to give up on the TrueIDE completely for now. That way power devices can be powered from the single power connector! The other passes through to the A1200 floppy drive. One goes to the power connector on the A1200 board. There is two floppy power connectors on the Rapid Road. If you get it the wrong way around you will destroy the Rapid Road. The important thing when installing in a A1200 is the correct orientation of the clock port cable.

You can also download the ADF of the install disk - which I had to do too since the floppy disk I was given had a read error on it.I wrote our the ADF using Kryoflux on my MacBook Pro (could also use my X1000 or TransADF on a Classic Amiga) to a fresh floppy disk and then I was good to go. Seriously, please include these in the printed instructions! The link to the instructions I used is here. You need to go to the Wiki for Individual Computers for the real installation instructions, which includes the really important photos of how the device needs to be installed. Note that the printed instructions included with the Rapid Road are essentially useless.
