Minimig and Amiga Forever 2008 roms

[beller]

My Minimig arrived today (a big thanks to Matthew at AmigaKit!).  After installing the case I'd purchased a bit ago I tried to boot my new prize.  I attempted to use the ROM files and key from the latest Amiga Forever 2008.  No boot.  After finding my Amiga Forever v 2.0 CD I copied those files to the card and the Minimig booted perfectly!  Very nice.

So, looks like the new AF2008 rom files aren't compatible.

For those who wonder whether to get a Minimig...wow, very cool and appears to be highly compatible so far.

Piru...

This isn't required anymore since the 1.1 firmware.  You need the encrypted kick file and the rom.key file in the directory.  With the Amiga Forever 2.0 encrypted roms the Minimig boots fine.  With the 2008 roms it doesn't boot.

The docs for 1.1 say they've tested encrypted AForever roms from AF 2005.  Something appears to have changed in the 2008 update.
