Amithlon

[trekiej]

@esc: the mouse is a usb mouse. I have not had any problems with my other machines, except on the laptop the previous windows would close quickly after I double click on a drawer icon. The drawer would open.

@pyro: I could not get it to run on virtualbox (32bit).

One question I have is, what does one need to get better resolutions after boot?
I adjusted p96 and all appeared to be the same.
It seems to point to the video card.

Compaq EVO 310 Desktop boots Amithlon

How does one install the cd that is in this post as an iso?

[trekiej]

Cd burned and bootable.
What Linux live cd's would be good to make the partitions?
Slacko 5.7.0 has an Amiga partition option.
I believe I need to make a partition that Linux does not make.
I guess I could dd to a usb drive.
How about a hard drive?

I belive fdisk or cfdisk is the one that allows for more choices in the type of partions.

I also see that a HP a6137c works with Icaros Desktop.

[trekiej]

What I have seen is type 76 reserved.
I have not found a program yet.
One site uses a fdd.

[trekiej]

I found it. You can use Xfdisk in Freedos to enter the type 76.

I got Amithlon installed on an Athlon XP machine. I may move the drive to another machine.
I hope to get some compatable video cards.

I got it intsalled now what do I do.
I plan to get the latest rtg.library from win-uae.
Do the updates and then install kernel 4 and kernel 4 drivers.
Does os-3.9 have boing-bag1?

[trekiej]

I got the updates installed and now want to install Kernel4 and drivers.
How does on install this kernel. Rename it to emubox.gz after decompressing it?

[trekiej]

I found my answer here.

[trekiej]

I got kernel4 installed and drivers with patches.
Audio and Network is next.
Is AmigaSYS recommended?
Would you leave it as OS3.9?

[trekiej]

I did install AmigaSYS but I am not for sure if I would recommend it yet.
I would need to use it more.

[trekiej]

I need to get networking going the next time I work with Amithlon.
Getting files into Amithlon is a chore.
