Notes:
(I) lnstallatlon of the Golden Gate 1oftware on a hard disk.
Method A Booting the Amiga computer with the disk Goldrni11e I.
This method applies always If your hard disk startup-sequence does not
change the logical drives l.lflS: and DEVS. I.e. the hard disk drive on which the
Golden Gate software Is to be Installed will later function as the boot-drive.
However. In case any problems should urlse. I.e. Golden Gate gives an error
message with the start (e.g. Code 50, cunnot open glib.library), please select
Method B· Boot the Amiga cornputr.r from the hard disk and start the
Workbench. Now Insert tlw disk Goldmi11e I and open the drawer
GOLDENGATE. Start hard disk lnstullatlon by double-clicking onto the icon
HDinstall.
(2) Disk Change under MS-DOS. Due to the fact that Golden Gate fully runs
as a process within the Amiga-DOS operating system a disk change under MS­
DOS is recognized by Amiga-DOS, too. In order to avoid having to wait after
each disk change under MS-DOS until Amiga-DOS has realized the disk
change (floppy LED flashes once) this disk change recognition is switched off
on delivery of Golden Gate.
