It can be done, but I don't remember how. A lot of my friends transitted
from C-64s to Amigas, and at least one of them had hardware that let him
connect the 1541 directly to his Amiga to do file transfers. I don't
remember if it was just a cable and some software, or if there was a
hardware interface involved. A quick post to comp.sys.amiga.hardware should
find someone who remembers.

Regards,
Mark.
