MUI problems / OS 3.9 questions on a A4000T
« on: October 18, 2008, 08:42:47 PM »
Hey everyone,

My 4000T continues to give me grief. I am trying to install MUI so I can then get the Genesis Wizard to run. OK, I have installed MUI several times, using mui38usr.lha from Aminet. When I try to run any MUI app except the MUI Prefs, and SonPlayer, I get 'Unable to create MUI application'. I checked my user-startup, it seems OK, I do get the extra MUI buttons showing up in SongPlayer, but no other MUI apps work... Weird..

Secondly, out of laziness, I thought I could just copy over the OS3.9 install from my A1200T, as that had MUI and Genesis working... Bad idea... The workbench.library on the 4000T is special, isn't it?

So, anyone install OS 3.9 on a 4000T? Any possible issues I should worry about? I didn't want to try a full install from the OS3.9 CD because I remember how hard it was to get working....my 1200T choked on the AmigaDOS ROM update, iirc.
Does the OS3.9 install handle the special workbench.library correctly?

Sorry for the rambling post... My Specs.
A4000T, CS Mk-III '060, OS3.1, 146MB RAM (or so) 4GB SCSI HDD, 2 SCSI HDD about 500MB or so, Teac SCSI CD-rom, Yamaha SCSI CD-R, Toaster4000, Flyer, PAR, TBC 4, Flyer drives all in external powered enclosures. Software, pretty close to stock, DOpus 4.12, NewIcons 4.

Any help would be great...

Hi Mozzerfan: Thanks for the advice. It's odd though, after by failed attempt to install 3.9, I couldn't get the 4000T to boot at all, even from a floppy....
