[Guide] Installing AmigaOS 4.1 with FS-UAE
First at all: This are the steps I've successfully installed my copy of AmigaOS 4.1 FE Classic. Maybe there are other ways to do this.
With Update 1 for AmigaOS 4.1 FE you'll be able to use ZIII RAM as real RAM. You simply have to insert the following line to your startup-sequence: Code:
c:bootloader Commandline "norampager"
The config: Code:
amiga_model = A4000/OS4 To simply create VHDs you can use VirtualBox or my little Tool "VHD Creator" for Mac OS X: http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=972097&postcount=7 First steps: Boot with the above config to FS-UAE and click immediatly the ESC key. This will bring you to the CyberstormPPC Boot Menu. http://s22.postimg.org/spc5exze9/image.png Click on SCSI and choose Unit 1 ... http://s28.postimg.org/auygmscvh/image.png ...and set options like in this screenshot. http://s29.postimg.org/9ko8ojtqv/image.png It is important to set CD Boot Priority to a value between 0 and 5 to get CDROM bootable between Harddrive and DF0:. Click Use and Save. Installation: Now insert the AmigaOS 4.1 Classic CDROM and reboot the emulator. This is needed, because the CDROM isn't recognized like a inserted floppy. After the reboot the CDROM shoud start. http://s30.postimg.org/f6ffsf5ht/image.png After this you came to the first screen. http://s28.postimg.org/p0fc948x9/image.png It's now useful to click on Start the Hard Disk preparation utility... and select Expert mode. http://s8.postimg.org/8w9u21kyt/image.png Next click Install... with your selected hard file. http://s7.postimg.org/4e7q1vuvv/image.png In this windows you shouldn't do anything. Only check the hard disk size to be correct. http://s30.postimg.org/71tjigexd/image.png Click on Ok - accept changes and after this Edit partitions and filesystems. http://s22.postimg.org/iji93xh0x/image.png To able to boot from hard drive it's needed to copy some filesystems to Rigid Disk Block (RDB). To do this click on Add new FS. In this case we choose SmartFilesystem from L:. As Dostype you must enter 53465300.Click on OK. http://s13.postimg.org/gbf229euv/image.png Now you can create some partitons on your hard drive. To do this, click on the free space in the partition area and select Add, remove or edit partitions. Resize your partitions as needed. To change the filesystem go to Select filesystems/edit details. Select SFS/00 and click Ok - accept changes on every partition you want make changes. http://s15.postimg.org/yk9qxrcez/image.png After all changes click on Save to disk and close Media Toolbox window. The System now wants you to reboot the computer. Do it so. http://s9.postimg.org/p06c42xsf/image.png After Reboot you can start the installation. Click on Start the AmigaOS 4.1 installation utility. Click multiple Next >. On the hard drive screen click Format disk(s) and choose your first partition (in this case DH0:). http://s16.postimg.org/7iocs6bhh/image.png Click Next > and choose your newly formatted partition (should be automatically selected). Click Next >. Now Choose the RTG graphics card. In our case it is the Picasso IV. Click Next >. Select the Monitor to use. It makes sense to use 1024x768@60 (48 kHz). http://s7.postimg.org/78pmaubkr/image.png At this point the checkmark for Load the cybppc.device must be set! Click Next >. The Installation starts! After some time you must reboot. Maybe after reboot you'll get a green screen. If so, quit FS-UAE and restart it. After this restart/reboot you should see the installed Workbench 4.1. http://s27.postimg.org/n7l93uksj/ami...9222055_01.png More parted guides: |

Partially Guide to setup network connection with FS-UAE and AmigaOS 4.1
(only macOS at this time) Things you'll need:
The Config: Code:
amiga_model = A4000/OS4 First steps: Use a m68k emulations setup - line AmigaOS 3.9 - to download the archive linked above to a hard file shared with your AmigaOS 4.x setup. Installation: Start your AmigsOS 4.x setup. Open the shared hardfile and double click on Ethernet.lha. Select only ethernet.device itself, set destination to DEVS:Networks and extract the driver -> click Start. http://s3.postimg.org/fnhfw1sr7/amig...9301931_01.png Close UnArc and go to SYS:Prefs. Open Internet and click New... on Interfaces. Choose a name for the new interface - in our case Ethernet - and select ethernet.device from DEVS:Networks as device driver. Tick on DHCP and choose a host name - for us AmigaOS4. Click on Use and after this on Save. http://s11.postimg.org/oizurkt1v/ami...9301932_01.png Now restart your "Amiga" and you have internet access... From the AmigaOS 4.1 CDROM you can now install some internet tools such as IBrowse or OWB to check your Internet access. |
@amigafreak68k Thanks for the guide. A bit later, I hope to integrate a VHD creator in FS-UAE Launcher + have FS-UAE automatically recognize the RDB mode (if you chose that when creating the VHD) so hard_drive_0_type = rdb won't be needed anymore :)

Cheers!
Feel free to integrate this guide in your homepage ;) |
Well done!
Danke, Herr Nachbar. :-) |
:d ;)

Cool thing, OS4.1 looks very neat. Is it software from 2001...3 ? It looks so much better and cleaner than the window stuff of that time. But what can we do with OS4.1 ? Which software runs on it ? Does it use PPC code? 68k programs won't work I guess. Nevertheless well done ;-)

No problem. There is no estimated time for this :)

I don't have much interest in purchasing a copy of 4.1 but it's interesting to see the installation process. Thanks :)

Update your AmigaOS 4.1 Installation
Update to Update 6 of AmigaOS 4.1:
Since AmigaOS 4.1 it's possible to update your AmigaOS with patches and new features. AmigaOS 4.1 is shipped as version "Update 2". Update 3 to 6 you can download from Hyperion's website. Since Update 6 you can update your Installation through AmiUpdate which comes as new feature in Update 6. Please note, that you only can use AmiUpdate with installed TCP/IP connection (have a look at my guide). To update to Update 6 download all update archives to hard disk and extract them. Install them one after another. During the installations you'll be asked for installation of RunInUAE. It's your choice, whether you need it or not. Update with AmiUpdate after installing Update 6: At the first start of AmiUpdate it tells you, that there is a new version of AmiUpdate available. This ends up in an error because of a library version mismatch. This shared library is part of the updates listed after first scan. To get access to the update servers you must insert your user credentials from Hyperion's website. If a dialog appears to choose location of JAmiga:, assign it to RAM:. Look down on the list after scan and deselect all updates (Select None). Select only An update to the AmiUpdate shared library is available from Third party application updates and click Update. Maybe you must do this update twice. After Reboot you can do the other updates without error messages. |

Thanks for that great guide :)
Is there anywhere I can get this and any other guides such as the 3.9 one in PDF format please. |
Know someone, how i can get a cd of 4.1 for uae in Germany ?
I can't find any shop with available 4.1 for Classics !! Why they don't sell this anymore? |

http://www.amigashop.org or http://www.vesalia.de Noone has tested if it works with WinUAE or FS-UAE, as far as i know. But if nothing relevant has changed, it should work. |

Or as miggymac says AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition should work too. |
Got this screen just after booting Amiga OS 4.1 FE :
http://i38.servimg.com/u/f38/16/40/49/27/fs-uae10.png :help |
#22 is NUMSG_UAEBOOTROM_PPC, this means that the UAE boot ROM is active (it is incompatible with AmigaOS 4). Please make sure to disable all UAE expansions, and don't use directory hard drives, or uaehf/uaescsi devices.
