I recently tried AmigaSys4 AGA + 3.9 and it looks great running on my 1200
I installed it using WinUAE and everything fine until I tried to 'upgrade' using my OS3.9 CDROM. After the upgrade had finished, I noticed that some of the files it copied accross were marked as 'read only'. As an example, I was no longer able to save my WorkBench Pattern prefs? I also had an idea. Would it be possible to ask more questions during the install about which components should be installed. Similar to the question about which icons to use, this would allow users to customise during the install process I'm hoping a future version will ask you if you've got an IndivisionAGA installed. If you select 'yes' it would give you a 1024x768 desktop with some nice wallpaper and still give you enough chip-ram to run applications (FBlit+FText?). |

WinUAE CD was left out treatment, the troubles are because of this. There will be developments naturally, but does not go by all of them simultaneously. I rehearsed FBlit on 3.9, for me wrongly working. How large a colour resolutions may 1024x768 IndivisionAGA? |

I couldn't get FBlit working with 3.9 either. I was running at 1024x768 with 128 colours. I'm now going to try it using a different monitor driver to see if that works instead.

Cannot installproperly Winuae
Have tried in WinUAE/Amiga Forever, followed guides and documentation, when I get it to boot the Amigasys hardfile I get the Amigasys boot screen but during load it complains something about picasso drivers can't set screenmode, once loaded several startup programs attempt to start but other error screens says attempting to load, close all screens etc, have tried multiple times.......
HEY GUYS AT AMIGASYS I really want to enjoy this, by the documentation seems some english errors, perhaps you might think about videos of the correct install proceedures on youtube or something? This can help many people at once..................... |

Shot 1: This is Amiga AGA version, u not use CD Mount, but add hard drives -> AmigaOS3.9?
Install AmigaSYS 3.1 and use this files -> http://amigasys.extra.hu/local/UAEscsiCDMount.zip Mount AmigaOS3.9 CD and wait for start installation. Shot 2: See/test icontrol prefs, boxes, on or off. |

Mount AmigaOS3.9 CD and wait for start installation. i'm not too familiar with aos, but i don't see such an option here: http://img.nopaste.pl/showpict.php?i...79c17138b1.jpg it have to be elsewhere? Hmm, there's not only no boxes around the buttons, but i noticed an issue with refresing also, take a look: http://img.nopaste.pl/showpict.php?i...79a981bed2.jpg sliders won't move either (but assigned value changes) BUT, at the same time, some (most?) other windows are displayed properly: http://img.nopaste.pl/showpict.php?i...79b936b077.jpg More questions: I'd like to have in amigasys an old-style, red arrow as my mouse cursor, is it somewhere in filesystem, or i need to draw one? I'd like to do some changes in bottom menu, like replace "hippoPlayer" with a launcher for any other program, how can i do that? |

I looked at everything, and is found onto everything the solution. I prepared pictures.
1, AmigaOS 3.9 Bad installation library error: I test your mode (added amigaos3.9 cd, not mount) = http://amigasys.extra.hu/local/AmigaOS39_1.jpg I wrote it early this install mode is not good. If you add the compact disk to it, the attributums they change on Amiga side -> this files read only, not upgrade amigasys files = see picture. Good install: Install AmigaSYS 3.1 and use this files -> http://amigasys.extra.hu/local/UAEscsiCDMount.zip Unpack zip work: Start AmigaSYS 4, press f3.Type: Work: Mount Cd0 or cd1, cd2, etc.... Mount AmigaOS3.9 CD and wait for start installation. = http://amigasys.extra.hu/local/AmigaOS39_2.jpg Working perfect! 2, Button error: This is little mistake BB2 use new workbench rutines, you need new Birdie.prefs with disable some features -> http://amigasys.extra.hu/local/Birdie.zip unpack work: and copy System:Prefs/Env-Archive, and reboot, work good, buttons and windows is ok. BB2 + new birdie.prefs: http://amigasys.extra.hu/local/AmigaOS39_3.jpg after reboot: http://amigasys.extra.hu/local/AmigaOS39_4.jpg Next upgrade fixed this bugs.

AmigaSYS4AGA: i only have problem (at least for now) with upgrading to wb 3.9 from h&p 3.9 cd
Rest of issues are related to AmigaSYS3PlusAGA Both versions were installed on winUAE, but for use on my real amiga1200 I will try this solution asap, thx for help. But what about these questions: I'd like to have in amigasys an old-style, red arrow as my mouse cursor, is it somewhere in filesystem, or i need to draw one? I'd like to do some changes in bottom menu, like replace "hippoPlayer" with a launcher for any other program, how can i do that? And one more thing: What about changing the default name of "System" volume? I'd like to use both amigasys3 and amigasys4 systems, but i need to change volume names first in order to not to get a mixed-messed system after restart. It's propably not a very common problem, but i have a lot of free space on my cf drive, and i like having few systems ^^, i'm even going to install debian potato ;d -------------------------- 1st I do no how to use these UAEscsiCDMount, so i did a little trick, i made a CD0 folder, i copied all files from 3.9 cd clearing their read-only attributes, and added in winUAE this folder as CD0 device with "AmigaOS3.9" volume name 3.9 upgrade, BB1 and BB2 instalation was successfull 2nd The solution with birdie.prefs works fine. Thanks! 3rd I now know how to deal with "Tools Manager" and mouse pointers. 4th Rest cases are open Last edited by bagheera; 12 January 2009 at 23:50. Reason: ok, i did few thigs by myself |

Is it possibleto enable AUDIO @ AmigaSys4 Live or does EUAE has no Audio Support ?
Normally E-UAE can do Audio so why it is disabled in Amigasys4 Live ? Chris Last edited by MOS-Marauder; 28 February 2009 at 18:12. |

I'm confused by the website
http://amigasys.extra.hu/amithlon.html says "AmigaSYS does not contain any plus driver (internet, usb, amithlon update, conrib files stb), if you need these, you must install them manually." BUT http://amigasys.extra.hu/amithlonfeatures.html says "Contrib 3b GFX pack installed! powerfb1, powerfb2, powerfb3, powerfb4, powerfb5." Perhaps someone can tell me then what is the situation? If I install my "new" Amithlon machine does it automatically configure my graphics, sound and network drivers too? If so, great. Is there anything else I need to tweak? |

I assumed that was Hungarian for "Site not found" or "Billpayer hasn't paid his hosting bills"

Thanks Dary, it's back up (hope it still is when I get home from work)..
http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=521984&postcount=54 - could you tell me if the AmigaSYS package INCLUDES or DOESNT include the necessary updates/drivers etc? |

Hi there,
I am using AmigaSYS4 and OS3.9 and it's pretty cool. I also cannot get Fblit to do anything (using HighGFX 1024x768). Also I was unable to install BB1/BB2 after upgrade...(Cannot get Workbench Version?)... Lastly, is there anyway to change the mouse cursor (the hand icon) to a simple arrow? Pointer prefs, I suppose, but I'm no artist... squid |

Hello everyone,
I have 1 problem and 1 question. I am using AmigaSYS 4 and the problem I am having is: I am using an IDE CD-ROM as a slave to an IDE Hard Drive, and when I mount the drive the icon for the cd in the drive appears and then AmigaOS locks up and eventually displays a Software Failure. I am using OS3.1 because I haven't purchased 3.1 roms yet to upgrade to 3.9. I am using an Amiga 4000 and I am using the onboard IDE port. I tried other cds and also tried it with no cd in the drive and the results are all the same. Does anyone have any idea what could be happening? I have not tried another drive yet. Now for the question. How come during the AmigaSYS boot, the boot screen is messed up looking? I don't have a screenshot, but on my Amiga 4000 the boot screen that is displayed during startup looks like it is shifted to the bottom right and in 4 colors. Is there something I can do to change this? Great job on AmigaSYS..it is the best thing to happen to AmigaOS in a long time. |
