   You cannot read Commodore 1541/1581 format disks on Amiga drives. However,
the Emulators come with an interface that let you plug in your 1541 or
other serial device to the amiga. (In the case of the shareware emulator
you get the interface when you register with the author. In the case of
the two commercial emulators, the interface comes with the package.)
   Another option would be to transfer the programs with a modem over
the amiga.   Once the  emulator is running it can read the programs
form the amiga side.
   Once you have transfered all the files to the emulator, you can save
them to the amiga drives.   That way, the next time you need to run the
program you just read it from an amiga drive, instead of doing the
transfer.
