I liked the one that was in the small black enlclosure, that looked great!

Steve.

Well unknown to me at the time, a new core was released a few days ago that works with the normal minimig without arm controller, that gives hdd support.

I have just tested it and it works great, it does have a few quirks, but its good enough.

Im going to test it some more,

Just been testing, mounted 200MB System HDF and 3GB Games HDF. Seemed to work fine. I found the best results were when the SD was formatted as FAT16, if formatted as FAT32, it ran very sluggish.

Going to maybe test some more at home. Really need to try WHDLOAD on it. Testing DUNE2 earlier, the game was super smooth.

Basically, this pic update tries to give the none ARM users all the benefits of updates ARM users have been enjoying.

Mod, might want to split this to a new thread as its dragging it off topic,

Good idea
Just found info for this on MiniMig forum-http://www.minimig.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=259&start=10
So you can use Harddrive/HDF support on any MiniMig -Let us know how WHDload testing goes

Only have a 2MB board to hand. It works fine, apart from the OS Flashing.
Would need do an extensive test with 4MB, so how it does then.

A new pic was released last night which apparently fixes a few things including the floppy seek errors for previous pic.

Simon Archer Amiga OS4 developer demonstrates AmigaOS 4.1 Update 1at the Amiga Revival Fair 2009 12th December 2009.

No apologies for quality of the video, as it was grabbed in a hurry with a little Flip video camera.
The hall was noisy so expect some background distractions.

Six parts. (4-6 to follow)

Part 1 [ Show youtube player ]
Part 2 [ Show youtube player ]
Part 3 [ Show youtube player ]

Cool

- thanks for organising that, it looks superb!

Bloodwych · 16 December 2009, 16:10

Anyone running ClassicWB at the fair. In the vids, I thought I saw some ClassicWB installs! (ok I lie)

But I could be dreaming.......

Bloodwych · 16 December 2009, 16:16

Also noticed in the Stunt Car Racer comp, you had a pad and a Joystick.

A bit unfair - you should have had two identical controllers!

From the pics and vids, looks like it was an enjoyable success. Well done to everyone!

fitzsteve · 16 December 2009, 16:21

The guy who won had a go on both controllers so he was clearly the best LOL

By the way I have been practicing at home now I can get times in the low 40's so next time!!!!!

No steve your wrong lol

Dan used the Pad for his fast lap and a pad in the race...

BUT

Dan's fast lap time was 46.68 and mine was 46.69... MikeyC must have decided to rig a "Race off" to build some tension LOL
