amigaXfer, an easy-to-use GUI tool for lightning fast disk/file transfers on the serial port with the Amiga.

Binaries should work on Windows 7 or higher, 32bit or 64bit. Any Amiga that has a Serial Port is supported; Kickstart 34/37/39/40/45/46/47 tested.

Read the README.txt in the archive for multiple methods of entry to the Amiga ROM debugger.

If doing the floppyless bootstrap process, as a free and open source alternative to Workbench disks, Nico Bendlin's HelloAmi will boot all the way up to Workbench. He kindly enabled the Workbench's debug menu on my request, which involved some research work on his end.

Changes

  • SetupDialog
    • Open serial in exclusive mode if possible.
    • Support for interrupting the DEL-sending CrashEntry routine.
  • BootblockTool
    • Remove stale code from debug/optdebug bootblocks.
    • New "noboot" bootblock: Amiga won't boot it. DOS can still access.
  • RomTool
    • Fix: Progressbar progress display was not accurate.
  • Fix: Clear icache on code upload (020+). (Thanks to TerribleFire, issue #1)
  • Improved log output.

For other systems, use source code. The dependencies are python 3.8+, pyserial and wxpython. For the 68000 code, it is possible to just copy the built objects from the Windows archive. Else, vasm or phxass will build them. A makefile is provided.

Note that this version has changed the assembly files. Re-copy or rebuild.
