The Os 3.1.4 Thread

[kreciu]

I stared reading about 3.1.4 and I think I like it (even if I was VERY skeptical about it initially).  I think I will get myself nice Christmas gift 2019 , but I want boxed version .

Is there any chance that there could be better "support/integration" of PPC boards... (what ever this means...).

Also, any chance to get OS3.9 true upgrade, to make it more up to date?

AND also we need better support of OS4.1 for classics. Like I mentioned before it is like a demo version of this system on Amiga Classic. It works... but hardware support is minimal (FastATA, PCI-USB etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.).

I like to dream .

[kreciu]

It there any list of "bugs killed" in the ROM? My Amiga only needs to reset like "10x" before normal operation .

[kreciu]

Now we need official update for 3.9 , something like 0S3.9.5.


Other idea... I know it this will sound "crazy" but is there any way that Amiga could detect CD-ROM without any other external drivers (considering there is a HDD/CD-ROM on one tape, 4xeide or other solution). I assume there would not be space in ROMs do to it.

THAT would be something

 (I have no idea what I'm talking about ).

Same here... I will use 3.1.4 on my 030 desctop, but for 060/PPC I want "updated" OS3.9 .

[kreciu]

The same here. I will get it with new ROMs and nice box .

[kreciu]

That is strange. So, there are different versions of 3.1.4 but have the same number name? Is there going to be a final version? Maybe updates should be delivered separately, so there is no confusion like 3.1.4.1...? Are there going to be "silent" versions of the 3.1.4 ROM ?

[kreciu]

There are no changes besides the copyright string (fortunately or unfortunately, we had a couple of bugs fixed in the meantime, but addressing those will be reserved for 3.1.4.1 as there are likely more coming).

So feel ensured that this is the same 3.1.4 it used to be in the beginning.

I see, I was thinking there are some substantial updates.

[kreciu]

Yes... Thank goodness there is no other software out there that updates and you receive a slightly new version. Like on your phone, or computer, or watch, or almost all software that is currently created...

I don't remember when I had to purchase software update for my phone, computer etc. Maybe after support time is over, I do pay for updates/upgrades.

Personally, I don't care "what is out there".

It was not clear to me what type of updates are for 3.1.4 and it seemed to me strange that tweaks are being made to released version. In general I got used to that there are "strange things" in Amiga World, so I don't care about those thing to much (or basically at all). So, I simply wanted to know what is happening there.

I will wait for boxed version with ROMs, I have no way to burn ROMs on my own and this will be my "final version" of 3.1.4 .

[kreciu]

I actually think that I will like 3.1.4 more then 3.9. Simpler, cleaner and way newer. With few of my own "additions" it should work very well. I just can't wait for physical version with ROMs. I will get at least two .

[kreciu]

Great to see those. I've never shopped with them, I will wait for Amigakit.com.

BTW. It reminds me old good days when you got floppies and ROMs .

PS. Just don't update ROMs to often, I "hate" disassembling my monster A1200 .
