Installing Intuition v45 in 3.1.4 issue

All this "if exists" is rather pointless, all it does is obfuscate potential errors (not that shell v46 care about errors...)

The issue is the "p" bit set when using a physical rom, which ends causing Loadmodule to attempt to load modules which are already in rom. So remove the "p" bit on your hard drive´s files which display the error.

Removed the p bit on my intuition.library in LIBS on my DH0:
Calling lodmodule (latest version from aminet) with intuition.library makes my Amiga 4000 reboot over and over again. Same as before when p bit was still there.

Yeah, also tried it without, same behaviour and does not work.

I found the issue with the reboot, in the first line of the startup-sequence there was a command to copy the ROM to FastRAM of my Cyberstorm MK II and LoadModule did not work then, so your p bit hint did help and work.
Thanks for that!

I am glad it is solved.

@bitter
Does your Aca1221ec provide slowmem/Rangermem at 0x00c0.0000? Is it more than 512k? As Thor wrote https://www.a1k.org/forum/showpost.p...&postcount=280 here, exec dismisses rangermemory of it is larger than 512k and deletes loaded modules. I wonder if that is the reason.

Not sure if this is a "holy thread resurrection" type situation but here goes.

Been messing around with blizkick running WB3.1.4 off a 3.1 rom but blizkick to a 3.1.4 rom, I had installed Intuition v45 using C:loadmodule ROMUPDATE in my S-S and all was fine but as soon as I added the blizkick it fails, the system will boot but will refuse to use the new Intuition.

Tried some of the suggestions in this thread but none of them work at all.

C:blizkick DEVS:kickstarts/A1200314 QUIET
C:Loadmodule ROMUPDATE (have used c:loadmodule libs:intuition.library nomemfkick reverse with no luck)

Intuition was installed using the method listed on the Hyperion website.

BlizKick can also load modules. So I would try to add intuition.library module to the BlizKick command line (without QUIET for testing time) and comment the LoadModule command line.

[nogginthenog]

Another option could be to create a custom 3.1.4 Kickstart containing Intuition v45 using Remus or romtool from AmiTools.

Not tried this yet but I think it might be possible using modules from the 3.1.4 modules disk. Can anyone confirm?

.

If you make a correct installation including modules, Blizkick is not necessary to get KickStart on 3.1.4 by starting the system from KickStart 3.1.

Good Work this :

If Exists C:LoadModule
;C:Version exec.library version 46 >NIL:
;If Warn
C:LoadModule libs:intuition.library
;EndIf
EndIf

I was only getting blank screen on my 1200 Tower (i.e loaded up workbench but no icons). I checked Hyperion's website and updated my s-s as below and working fine with v45.intuition.library.



A window containing your Startup-sequence will open. The first lines on the screen should read as follows:

If Exists C:LoadModule
C:Version exec.library version 46 >NIL:
If Warn
C:LoadModule ROMUPDATE
EndIf
EndIf

Replace them with the following:

C:LoadModule ROMUPDATE

Then save the result back to disk by pressing the ESC key, then the X key, then press return. Then reboot.
