hi

It's really AmigaOS and it's SSL capabilities. Modern browsers and OS's have moved beyond what is supported by Amiga and it's SSL implementation.

hi

You install 3.8 then update to 4.4. I have no trouble with USB on my Amithlon system setup this way. 3.8 was didn't need a key (I think) and the "update" doesn't remove that but gives you the new everything else.

ok thank's

What settings did you use for your virtual machine?

[AMIGASYSTEM]

For the setting of VirtualBox see the attached video, at the moment it is only a test, now I should see if everything works regularly.

Thanks

[AMIGASYSTEM]

Tried to make other settings and on VirtualBox I can not configure the Audio and the Network, any advice?


About audio I have two cards, one integrated and one SB Live PCI, maybe I'm wrong to configure something on VirtualBox?

For the Net I could not understand which device to use in Miami


I had never used Amithlon and hp noticed that it is much faster than WinUAE tested FFPlay on some videos with high resolution and the result is amazing.

Networking is broken in modern virtual box. I’ve determined that networking is broken with Dos virtual machines as well in modern virtual box. So the only option is to use a really old version or just forget about networking

Good to know, I had networking functioning on Amithlon in an older version of VB but have not been able to get it working in the new versions.

For audio choose what you want to use as the output on your system but the virtual would be configured as ICH AC97. You will need to have kernel 3.1 or kernel 4 installed along with the appropriate drivers for the kernel version you are using. Pciinsmod running in user-startup should initialize the AC97 sound card in the virtual environment.

Thanks SnkBitten, excuse my ignorance Amithlon, how do I check which Kernel is installed on my Amithlon HardFile, and how do I update the Kernel?, thanks

[SnkBitten]

To see your kernel version from a CLI type
xcat /proc/version

To replace your kernel you need to copy it to the boot partition (DOS or Linux, not AmigaOS) where you launch Amithlon and edit the init string to call the new kernel. On the AmigaOS side, you need to copy the kernel modules to their appropriate locations. Once the kernel is loading Amithlon and the modules are installed, pciinsmod will load the appropriate drivers for what Amithlon/Kernel is detecting....if the VM is configured correctly it'll load AC97 sound modules which you can configure in AHI.

More details are available in my installs guides as well as links to download the different kernels/modules.

For Virutalbox setups, kernel 3.10 is fine, along with the kernel modules for it.

Ok now works well audio with VirtualBox and Amithlon AfA-OS , now I have the Network configuration, if I use "amithlon1_net.device" Genius or Miami tells me that it can not open the device

I also have a little graphic problem with AmiStart, if run by WBSartup the bar graphics are corrupted. If instead I run AmiStart later from a different path the graphics are perfect as in the screenshot

[AMIGASYSTEM]

OK fixed now on VirtualBox everything works well even WiFi Network and mounting of USB Devices.

[SnkBitten]

Excellent, what version of Virtualbox are you using? I had networking working on mine but after upgrading VB it stopped....and that was a number of upgrades ago of VB.

[AMIGASYSTEM]

I am using VirtualBox v5.2.22-126460 su Win7 32Bit, the problem for me was in the "NAT" configuration, by default set an unsuitable card type, works well if imposed "PCnet-FAST III (Am 79C973)"
