New version of the exec.library (Amiga Classic)

[AmiDude]

After installing the new exec.library the correct way, the exec.library isn't resident.
How come the new exec.library doesn't show up in the SysInfo library list
(only the old v40.10 from ROM 3.1)?
I've tried it with several Amiga models en set-ups.

It works just fine in mine with custom kickstart 3.9 ROM including Cosmos Exec.library (loaded via MapROM of A630).

Does it show up in SysInfo?

EDIT:
Never mind. You attached SysInfo pic.

Which commandline you use in the startup-sequence? I can't get it to work
with both ROM 3.1 & 3.9. :confused:

I tried LoadResident, but it keeps saying that exec.library already excist.
Then I put the "REMOVE" command; "LoadResident exec.library REMOVE",
but then it's telling me that the resident list is empty?
I've tried this all in WinUAE with OS3.9.
Now, the LoadModule command works, but like I stated before; I doesn't
stay resident, only the old 40.10 exec.

Before SetPatch:

C:LoadModule L:Ram-Handler L:Shell-seg DEVS:console.device DEVS:scsi.device LIBS:exec.library LIBS:graphics.library DEVS:trackdisk.device DEVS:misc.resource DEVS:ramlib QUIET

C:SetPatch SKIPROMMODULES ram-handler,shell,console.device,scsi.device,exec.library,graphics.library,trackdisk.device,misc.resource,ramlib  QUIET

Put in the LoadModule declaration the exec.library first of all and then the rest. Also keep it as first line in S-S just to test it out.

I've put it first in line, no change.

I also saw that there are some spaces in SetPatch line (in exec.library, misc.resource). Is it as you have it or it's a copy-paste mistake?

It was a copy paste mistake, sorry for that.

I also tried it with my A1200/060/50Mhz/OS3.1, A1200/030/50Mhz/OS3.1,
same result... No new exec.library showing up in SysInfo.

Maybe the whole thing has to do with you having a home made KickROM?
Are there any others here who's having the same problems?

[AmiDude]

What are your accelerator boards ? Apollo ? Blizzard ?

Apollo 1260 & Blizzard 1230.

@AmiDude

Try with 'LoadModule Reboot Quiet'

And with only the exec.library !

Doesn't work; With WinUAE the screen goes yellow and comes
in an endless rebooting cycle.

With A1200 there's no change; Still no new exec.library in SysInfo.
:confused:

I get an email from PeterK :

Version >Nil: exec.library 45 REVISION 24
If WARN
  LoadResident >Nil: Libs:exec.library
EndIf

Doesn't work... I'm tired of trying all kinds off possibilities. I guess this new
exec.library is only for handmade Kick-ROMs or something...  
On the other hand, all other new librarys and devices work OK.

Uploaded a new AmigaOS ROM Update with only the exec.library 45.24 specially for you here : http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=743785&postcount=29

Thanks Cosmos!:) I'll give it a try and let you know A.S.A.P.

[AmiDude]

Well, it works... It's now recognized by the system, but now the other
new libraries and devices aren't recognized? Very strange... :huh:
