Don't know what error 60 could mean, but did you follow the instructions (hold down the A key to disable the BPPC, then boot without startup-sequence and run the update from floppy disk) ?

If the Amiga still boots, you should try it again. Otherwise you probably have to send the BPPC to repair.

Bye,

Oh!  I agree with you 100%!  I love the Trident Poseidon USB GUI stack messages and Poseidon pop-ups!  The messages show character.  I love stuff like that.

This reminds me of the xadmaster pop-ups (before they released a free keyfile).
When you tried to quickly click away the requester, it basically said

"You clicked on this button in less than 5 seconds. It is impossible for a normal human to read the whole disclaimer within this time-frame. Please wait."

ARRGGHH!! :lol:
