Installing MUI on A600GS (for IBrowse etc)
« on: September 04, 2024, 02:59:40 PM »
Is there a way to install MUI? I tried installing once, broke the whole Amibench, had to restore from backups

I’d like to have a web browser of some kind, I hear IBrowse is the best.

InstallerNG was crapping out on me on basically every install, so I installed Installer-43_3.lha from Aminet, which let me actually install things without crashing

The MUI version I installed was mui38usr.lha from Aminet

After which the A600GS wouldn't boot in to Amibench, so I updated the A600GS firmware and restored from defaults, which made it work again.

IBrowse installation finishes nicely (if I assign MUI: to where I installed MUI previously) but it won't start, it gives me an error on one of the MUI modules/classes/something

Are you sure Amibench and the OS will run 68K version of the MUI Version 3.8? It may need a higher version such as 4.0 or 5.0.
Personally I use version 3.9 but only on a real Amiga.


I am not sure at all, I have no idea how AmiBench actually works.

I guess it is AROS based somehow, but I'm not really sure what that actually means re: using and installing Amiga software - I have never used AROS before although I do know what it is.

Installed mui 3.9. Installation went ok.
But after a reboot.... aros screen and no amibench.

Ibrowse installation went ok with the old installer. But start with an error.

This was my experience, too, although with MUI 3.8
