Hi all,
Please help!
I recently bought a StrongARM equipped RiscPC (RISC OS 3.7), but the delivery driver from Parcelforce just dropped the box at my feet and trashed the hard disk.
Since then I've managed to put a good hard drive in it and after hacking !HForm have managed to format it (can't believe they write the hard disk formatting program in interpreted BASIC!).
I've found zip files on the riscos website, but I can't unpack them because all the unzip utilities require various modules like c-shared library, etc... and various paths set up, which I don't have because there's no boot file to set these things up, and no module-library thingy files on the hard disk.
What I think I need (in order to unpack the zip files from the RiscOS website onto my Hard Drive), is a boot-floppy with the necessary paths set up in the boot script and necessary library/modules required for running the Spark (or other) unzip utility.
Can anyone help me out here - any disks sent can be returned and I'll pay for people's trouble,
Thanks - Simon
