Title: I cant install amiga os 3.5
Post by: skywalkgr on January 23, 2004, 12:32:11 PM
Yesterday i found my original copy of amiga os 3.5 and i tried to install it under winuae on a hard disk file of 100mb size.

Hard file formatted under workbench 3.1 using Fast file system & directory caching. DC-FFS

Winuae configuration : i tried both 68EC020 , 68020 with 2mb Chip 8mb Fast , sound disabled , and AGA chipset.

I also mount a cdrom directory which contains os 3.5.

The first thing i've done : Booting from df0 with a workbench 3.1 disk , then dh0 formatted with DC-FFS as described above, i installed workbench 3.1 , machine rebooted and then i tried to install os 3.5 from cd.

i choose to install a PRE-installation of os3.5 , this step successfully completed and then machine rebooted. After that i tried to install the MAIN installation of 3.5 and a 5% installation hangs :///

i really need help , sorry about my bad english :)

Its hanging because it trying to play a sound during the install, and since you disabled it , it fails.
Enable the sound and it should work....
