Attempting to make myself a After Install CD for 3.2...
 
So far, I figure I can install it, and get the CD-ROM to read. After this, I need drivers, and utilities to at least get on the network, then afterward I figured I can copy over whatever I need, either via samba, or IBrowse.

So here's what I have so far, most of which are drivers. Am I missing anything critical?

1) lha.run (no idea why 3.2 doesn't seem to come with an unarc or lha program...)
2) MUI
3) Poseidon (for the RapidRoad/X-Surf 100
4) Fat95 (for USB)
5) Roadshow
6) Indivision Monitor / HighGFX
7) Mediator drivers
8) P96 (which ironically Individual computers wants to call it P96, but their download is still Picasso96.lha)
9) WarpUp 4.0 + 5.1 update
10) Warp3D
11) ppclibemu
12) AHI + GhostMix
13) IBrowse + WarpDT
14) smbfs
15) WHDLoad
16) WHDLoad Kickstart files.
17) key files.
18) Mouse Wheel driver.
19) MagicWB

My hardware is: Amiga 4000, Cyberstorm MKIII/PPC, Mediator, Voodoo 3, SB128, X-Surf 100, BigRAM 256, and Indivision AGA MK1.

This should get me the beginning setup so then I can pull things off the network though. Just figured I'd ask advice before I start Burning disks!

Thanks!

Don't forget the 68060.library.

RoadShow + smbfs can fit on a bootable floppy. Handy for emergencies.

I suppose I use DOPUS on my core setup as well.

I have yet to move my 3.2 setup to my towered a1200 (with mediator etc) so am watching this with interest. Do you use a ratte switch? If so dont forget the little startup utility for that.

Fat95 isn't strictly always needed, the included crossdosfilesystem can also be used.

This is the first I've heard of this! I should get one. I have just a little VGA switch box that I've used with the TT and Amigas.

I've wondered what's better, just to install the MMULibs from 3.2, or to install the ones from the Cyberstorm install disk. I have both as floppy images, so not really needed in the setup CD, and are done basically first thing before I hit the CD, and after initial install.

Ha, that would be handy to have Roadshow + smbfs on a boot floppy. Would the X-Surf driver fit on that as well? I'm guessing so? I'll have to look into that one for sure!

My monitor can take amiga via signals directly from the rgb socket on the back, so I actually output my indy mk2 into vga as input one on the rate switch, then the voodoo 3 as input 2, and the output goes to my monitor. There is a little signal that the utility generates that tells the switch when to switch. It means I don't need to manually change inputs on my monitor.
Screen goes black for a second then comes back up.
Its a bit of a roundabout solution but works for me.
