Still got a little problem with Poseidon if anyone has any advice.

Dump file is again attached and happens when 4.1 boots. USB mouse however still works happily in the background. The only reason I'm posting is because the crash appears to be preventing me from getting into Trident...I get an error message stating 'Could not create custom classes'

Any help appreciated as, other than this, I'm really excited about the new OS. Bought a compatible network card from AmigaKit (thanks!) and she's browsing the web, running CygnusEd 5 and playing Wipeout 2097 in all it's glory :)

Thanks in advance

Theres some faq's that you should read if you havent, one is the FAQ here:
http://forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=92

and this is a big help. has some deneb info : http://www.hd-zone.com/amigaos-4-1-classic/

I was having some deneb problems myself that turned out to be the jumpers on the medaitor were causing it. be sure they are set as to the first faq recommends.look for the optomizations for poseidon on the second link i gave above.

also do you have the latest poseidon 4.4 and is the bootloader in the deneb updated?

I have got the sata raid card working under os4.1 on the A4000 mediator with no trouble so far.
its a silicon image sil3114 chip (actual # is sil3114ctu) and i got it off ebay for $17usd here:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290574197080&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

i am using it with a sata to cf adapter and 4 gig transcend 133x card so far for testing. so far so good, card went in and was recognized right off and showed up in hd.From initial quick and dirty tests,seems this thing uses alot of cpu time copying to/from its drive but this might be my imagination. seems the system gets sluggish- it could be i havent configged something right. It is NOT bootable supposedly but i wonder if there was a way to get the pci lib and drivers into the deneb flash it might be?


the sapphire radeon 9250 128MB i use was also new from ebay for about $22..and supports 5v and 3.3v with no mods.

i have a ess solo sound card coming from ebay,its a 1938 chipset if i recall,i will report on it as soon as it arrives.

Hi Nearly-Right, I have some Ethernet speed tests done if you are interested:

http://www.hd-zone.com/2011/07/ethernet-adapter-speeds-amigaos-3-9-and-amigaos-4-1-classic/

Shows you the difference between the RTL 8029, RTL 8139...

Great test, i wonder if using a xsurf on zorro gets simular w/o the cpu overhead? i have the patched os4 x-surf driver if u need it?
