Hi Karlos

IIRC the AOS3.9 CD (first release) install the wrong SetPatch on the HD.

Check if it is at least 44.16 (in the Emergency-Disk directory on the OS3.9 CD)

@Framiga

Seems to be v44.17 in there...


your AOS3.9 CD, is the one with the installer for Emulation?

AFAIK, SetPatch 44.17 is by BB-1 that is already integrated in those OS3.9 CD.

I've had the same problem, and IIRC the answer was in the AOS3.9 FAQ section on the official site.

Hi Karlos,

take a look:

Q:

On bootup, I get the following error message: "Cannot open resource.library, version 44, unable to load AmiDock". I have the correct version of resource.library installed, and AmiDock exists in SYS:WBStartup. Why does this appear, and how do I eliminate this error?
 

A:

 In many cases the problem message you received did not accurately reflect a missing or even damaged library, but rather the absence of a "#?.gadget" file that the resource.library function depends on. Check the SYS:Classes/Gadgets/ directory on your system partition and the OS3.9 directory of the install CD-ROM and manually copy any missing #?.gadget files. Ensure that all the #?.gadget files are the latest versions (do this by checking the latest Boing Bag first, then the OS 3.9 CD-ROM).

 [Mike Wilson/Cor Kriekaart]

 Another cause for this message may be a corrupt or incorrectly installed 68040.library and/or 68060.library file. Make sure that you're using the correct--and valid--680x0.libraries. Such a corrupt file may work under OS 3.1, but will fail in OS 3.9.

 [Rob Pleak]

 Note that UnixDirs3 has the ability to redirect '/' to be the same as ':'; the root of the drive. This causes many poorly written installers to fail that rely on '/' to be 'parent directory'.
