3.5 installation freeze
« on: October 31, 2015, 12:50:50 AM »
Hi all,

Please see the attachments. This is running a 3.5 cd image I have in the CD-ROM drive section of FS-UAE.

I click on "Proceed" and everything freezes.

Are you sure the CD image is good?  Do other applications work okay in the emulator?  Some reason you want 3.5 rather than 3.9?

there is nothing wrong with 3.5, as a matter of fact it came with working print drivers unlike os3.9 lol

Hey, I just installed 3.9 - worked fine. I remember having a 3.5 box with the proper installation cd and everything so I tried that one first.

I did not know if 3.9 was free since I have never used above 3.1.

Cheers all.

Hi,

OS ver3.9 CD is not free.

See  http://www.vesalia.de/e_os39.htm

---

Ref Broken Printer Drivers on the OS ver3.9 CD.

See http://www.gregdonner.org/os39faq/installtips.html


Quote

"Q:

Have the printer drivers been updated since the OS 3.5 Boing Bag 1 release? [bad drivers removed in OS 3.9 SE CD]

A:

Not yet. Please note that there are two sets of printer drivers on the 3.9 CD:

 The drivers in: AmigaOS3.9:Emergency-Boot/Devs/Printers/ are the original drivers from the OS 3.5 CD, and should work fine.

 The drivers in: AmigaOS3.9:OS-Version3.9/Workbench3.9/Storage/Printers/ are from Boing Bag 1, and are known to be buggy."

All versions of AmigaOS retain their copyrights (by someone). You don't want to open up that can of worms! ;)

I am resurrecting this thread since I still have the same issue.

How can I solve this - I cannot buy 3.5 or 3.9 any more and this is - surely - an issue with the image of the CD?

Cheers.
