Ok, new thread!

 I have tried to install MorphOS several times but never succeeded, so ithought i should give it another try this week. I formated a hdd and made the partion bootable. I copied all the data from the cd-rom directly to the new partion (the installed filesystem is SFS 1.227 btw). When i rebooted the startup-sequence stopped and displayed "680x0.library is to old. You need version >46.2".

Fine, but the installed libraries (on MorphOS:) are
68060.library 46.7
68040new.library 46.5
68040.library 46.5
What the h**l is wrong?
The MorphOS cd i use, is the latest know (2006/06/06).

I have a BPPC 240Mhz and 060/50mhz, 128mb Ram and Bvision.


What reboot level have you set in the startup sequence?
Have you edited the "boot device = " (or similar) line to point to the correct partition for your MOS setup?
It's been quite a while since I played with MOSpup, but don't seem to remember having any great trouble setting it up, once I'd read the included instructions.
Mac Mini G4 (1.5GHz, 64MB VRam, 1GB Ram): MorphOS 3.6
Powerbook 5.8 (15", 1.67GHz, 128MB VRam, 1GB Ram): MorphOS 3.8.

Windows-free since 2011-2014 (Damn you Netflix!)

I have not edited the Startup-sequence anything, since i think the default should be fine.

Create a bootable partition and copy all the files from the CD to it. Now launch a text editor and read the instructions in partition:s/startup-sequence to tweak it to meet your needs.


I hate it when people say condescending crap like "google is your friend" or unhelpful crap like "rtfm". However, at least you now know where to start in terms of troubleshooting your MOspup installation. If you have any more problems there are plenty of people here to help. Good luck - MOS is fun once you get it going :-)
