BetterWB && CSMK3
« on: March 16, 2018, 12:40:32 AM »
Did anyone try to run BetterWB on CS MK3 ? I cannot make it run. It runs on Apollo 4060 with onboard ide/scsi(A4000/3000) with onboard 030, but it doesn't run on CS MK3. Just stalls. I install WB3.1 with 060 libs everything is ok, after installing BetterWB, stops working.
Please share your experience.

Thanks!

Thanks Gulliver.
1st I partition/format the Drive/SDcard/CFCard, with PFS3, whatever.
2- Install WB3.1 1gb partition.
3- 060 libs
Everything is ok here.
4th install BetterWB , install goes OK, no errors, nothing.
After install, when I reboot, the computer gives the drive click then stalls.
I noticed that the RTC stops, because if I stand 3 minutes waiting for the system boot, after opening the system with a boot disk I notice that time is delayed.
I used  CS MK3 SCSI with a CF card with acard scsi to ide. I also tried a normal scsi HDD, with the same result. Onboard scsi/ide same result.
I'm also using an Amiga 3000D
OS3.9 works perfectly with the same configuration.

Quote from: Gulliver;837387
Boot without startup-sequence by going to the early startup menu (to enter this menu hold both mouse keys whilst booting).

when you get to the cli type "setpatch" (without quotes)
then type "loadwb" (without quotes)
then type "endcli" (without quotes)

Do you have a functional workbench?


Doing that yes I do have :)

This only happens if I use CS MK3, no matter if it's onboard scsi, CybSCSIppc or buddha. If I use an Apollo3060 everything goes fine. I'm starting to wonder if all people say about good compatibility of p5 products might not be so true.

Hi!
Yes, I'm trying to use OS3.1 + BWB.
I have an instalation of CWB3.9, if it has Peterk icon.library, I don't know, but if it has, it loads normaly and works nice.
Maybe if I try to use loadmodule on OS3.1 it will work.
I also tried the latest version of icon.library, with the same result, no work.
BetterWB works fine, there is just something in icon.library or CS MK3 or Remlib.

Is there any alternative to Remlib? this seems to be the problem here with CS MK3

it works with Loadmodule icon.library

But Remlib cannot be used, therefore it makes a reboot.

If I use the NOREBOOT option, icon.library doesn't work, I have to make a reboot since there is no way to remove the library from memory first.

Managed to make it work with some exercise :)

Took setpatch 44.38 from os3.9 bb2
Downloaded latest loadmodule from aminet

C:LoadModule >NIL: LIBS:icon.library LIBS:workbench.library REVERSE NOREBOOT
C:SetPatch SKIPROMUPDATES icon.library workbench.library QUIET

All works fine, but I still would like to see if there is a fix for remlib.

Remlib would be perfect if it worked fine with MK3. But hapilly Mr Rapp is still around, maybe he can give a look to this. I'm available for testing things.
Because setpatch 44.38 doesn't belong to OS3.1 and Loadmodule is perfect, but would be unecessary.
