I have managed to complete the Build EAB WHDLoad Install script in both Powershell and Python with extra files to run them directly from Windows Explorer, macOS Finder and Ubuntu Files.
I have created Build EAB WHDLoad Install versions for anyone to test: - Standalone: Can be run from Workbench by double-clicking UserPackage-Installation icon. Download standalone version from https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/h...standalone.zip.
- User Packages: Can be used in HstWB Installer user packages for self install. Make sure to remove existing files from user packages directory build by HstWB Installer. Download user packages version from https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/h...erpackages.zip.
I have also written a preparing self install tutorial at https://github.com/henrikstengaard/h...#user-packages, which describes how to use the Build EAB WHDLoad Install scripts with screenshots and details for Windows, macOS and Linux.
This tutorial is part of the documentation being updated and placed in HstWB Installer github wiki instead of the readme. |
Good you are keeping up the good work. As a user, a few (minor) comments/suggestions in case you wish to consider them for the future:
- I am not sure whether this comes from the BetterWB, however the HDToolbox comes out of the box with scsi.device instead of uaehf.device. I believe many of us install the CF on WinUAE and some even use it exclusively on emulation, so this may help. Not a big deal to change it manually, though
- The HstLauncher looks very promising for supporting low-end classics. While I use AGS2 on the A1200, I plan using HstLaunch for the rest of the WHDload collection such the magazines/intros/betas, although I should start the work and don't know if this is going to be feasible. I am reporting if you like the idea for the "official" release.
- I found extremely convenient using the images and started with the release v11 with 16 Gigs. Any luck to get a v12 with 16 GB for the BetterWB 31?
