Installs 98% OS4.1FE on Cloanto A4000PC Emulator
Posted: Wed Jan 16, 2019 2:00 am
I'm having trouble completing my install.
I guess I should start with the file checksum... 6cbcad9f27e77f156e255702cc540000 for ClassicInstallCD-53.71.iso.lha
I downloaded it today. Is that what it should be?
That lha file decompresses to 564850688 bytes for ClassicInstallCD-53.71.iso
I also had a copy in a file AmigaOS41FinalEdition_Classic.zip which decompresses that to 564850688 bytes also.
So being the same size I'm guessing I've got the latest download and that it downloaded okay?
My install gets to 98% and stops with the following error:
Volume AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition has a read/write error Process 76 "Installation Utility"
The resultant 98% install runs but defaults to 320x256 in 4 colours and notifies of missing files for the dock.
I can change that to a few classic and "board" options but not the 1920x1080 I specified.
Looking in the AmigaOS4.1 drive I could see that .info files were missing (no icons) and many other files.
So from the PC side I set about copying the missing files from the iso to the SYS drive.
Windows 10 popped up a few things when copying from the .iso initially to a shared directory:
1) The file name you specified is not valid or too long.
Specify a different file name.
<<Global>>.prefs
2) This is no longer located in E:\System\Devs\DOSDrivers. Verify the item's location and try again.
AUX
2b) Same message for AUX.info
3) This is no longer located in E:\System\Emulation\AmigaDisks\Workbench3.1\Storage\DOSDrivers. Verify the item's location and try again.
AUX
2c) Same message for AUX.info
I'm guessing 1 above isn't a problem for the install.
Could problems with the AUX files be the cause of the install read/write error?
I then used the following in an Amiga shell:
COPY Mine:System TO SYS: CLONE ALL NOREPLACE
to copy files from the shared directory to AmigaOS4.1:
Checking the result the AUX files are nowhere to be seen so they couldn't be copied by the looks...
After manually copying I'm currently running OS4.1 successfully (by the looks).
But, I can only run up to PAL: High Res Lace as no better options appear but it is still an improvement.
It is still complaining about some missing files in the startup:
:C-68k/Version: Unknown command
CD: object not found
DisplayWarn: Unknown command
Loading AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition Kickstart...
:C-68k/Version: Unknown command
:Installation-Support/BuildScreenModePrefs: Unknown command
:Installation-Support/BuildScreenModePrefs: Unknown command
and AmigDock can't says: The following icon file is missing: :AmigaOS4.1-Installation
Several repeated installs produce exactly the same result...
Am I the only person having this problem? Any suggestions please on how to fix it?
