When I install some software to my hard drive a box appears telling me to insert volume WORK: in any drive. What can I do?

The problem seems to be that the program installer is looking for a drive called WORK: that is not present. Alot of software is hardcoded to copy to certain locations because it is based upon the authors system. The easiest way of getting rid of this is to make an assign.

This tells the Amiga to look at another part of the hard drive when the application tries to access the non-existent Work: partition.

Open a Shell (CLI) window and type:

ASSIGN WORK: XXXX:

(Where XXXX is you should substitute for the name of your drive. For example, DH1:).
