Hi:
I copied main amospro program into the hd (amiga 2000) and it works fine.
My floppy drive has problems, and many times does not read.
I cannot install full amospro because of these problems. If i copy the other
amospro disks (to hd), one at a time, is very possible I can get all disks into the hd.
Is possible to copy all amospro disks into the hd, then read the files from within amospro ?
Without installing?

Yes, if you can get all the data form the disks onto the HD, without using the floppy drive, AMOS will run fine by just setting up the ASSIGNs of the disk names to the folder you have put it in.

You should put these assigns in S:USER-STARTUP for example:


;BEGIN AMOS Professional
Assign AMOSPro: System:Programs/AMOS/AMOS_Pro/ >nil:
Assign AMOSPro_System: AMOSPro: >nil:
Assign AMOSPro_Accessories: AMOSPro:Accessories >nil:
Assign AMOSPro_Tutorial: AMOSPro:Tutorial >nil:
Assign AMOSPro_Examples: AMOSPro:Examples >nil:
Assign AMOSPro_Productivity1: AMOSPro:Productivity1 >nil:
Assign AMOSPro_Productivity2: AMOSPro:Productivity2 >nil:
Assign AMOSPro_Compiler: AMOSPro:Compiler >nil:
Assign AMOSPro_Extras: AMOSPro:Extras >nil
;END AMOS Professional


just swap "System:Programs/AMOS/AMOS_Pro/"  <<< for the location you have copied all of the disk contents to
