@Maria

You can always choose boot partition from early startup menu or use boot menu programs from Aminet.

Is GenesisRA shipped with AmigaOS 3.9? If it is then resource.library probably is on your AmigaOS partition too?

You can use Workbench 68k in MorphOS too but I dont remember if old tricks work anylonger.

In theory if you disable ExtModules (fakerom, icon and wb libs), enable kickstart and use 68k LoadWB command you get original Workbench. Maybe :-)

@ViD

Always use unpatched kickstart and if you are using Kickstart image make sure it is version 40.68 on A1200.

But black screen probably means BVision driver didnt start. Try using debugramdump (CD0:Boot directory) after failed MorphOS boot. Maybe it reveals something interesting.

Also see another thread.

The fact is that the speed of the downloading gets halved with miami running under MOS.

The fact is that you are using 68k serial.device :-) It seems PPC native serial.device is missing from PowerUp cd. Try with this (ripped off from PowerUp 0.4 archive).

Ah, that is bad. Then there is not much to do I'm afraid. 68k serial is slow because JIT doesnt work in interrupts and interpretetive emulation on PowerUp cant beat real 68k.
