Looking for Classic Amiga PPC beginners guide

spudje · 15 July 2016, 10:53

Since I recently acquired an A4000 with CyberstormPPC I would like to make it a dual boot AOS machine. AOS 3.9 enhanced with PPC capabilities and AOS 4.1.

Mainly getting AmigaOS 3.9 PPC capable seems like a lot of work. Is there some step by step guide anywhere? How to:

- Setup AmigaOS 3.9 for it
- Install the correct libraries
- Install WarpUP and/or PowerUP. Do I need to choose one of the two or install both?
- Install software that use PPC, and how to (e.g. games)
- WarpUP only works with Cybervision 64/3D, CybervisionPPC and PCI 3D cards, correct? or can I use it with my Cybervision 64 as well?

And for AmigaOS 4.1, I assume this installs everything correctly out of the box? Or do I still need to add libraries and other stuff like USB drivers, Netwerk device and TCP/IP stack...?

Thanks a lot in advance!!!
