2 sets of 3.X ROMs w/new OS 3.1 Disks....


NICE! Did you get the Cloanto ROMs & Disks or did you get the real deal? If you got the Cloanto stuff let us know if you have any trouble... (remember, workbench.library is no longer in the Cloanto ROM, it's on the Cloanto disk - at least for the A2000 - not sure about the A4000T).
A500: 2MB Chip, 8MB Fast, IndiECS, MiniMegi, IDE4ZorroII on Z-500, KS1.3/KS3.1, WB3.1&BWB
 
A2000HD: 2MB Chip, 128MB Fast, P5:Blizz 2060@50MHz, PCD-50B/4GBCF, XSurf100, RapidRoad, IndiECS, Matze RTG, MiniMegi, CD-RW, SunRize AD516, WB3.9
 
A1200: 2MB Chip, 64MB Fast, 4GBCF, GVP Typhoon 030 @40MHz w/FPU, Subway USB, EasyNet Ethernet, Indi AGA MKI, FastATA MK-IV, Internal Slim CD/DVD-RW, WB3.5

Hey what do you mean by this? If I install the cloanto 3.1 rom in my a2k and install wb with commodore disks it wont work?

To answer your question as stated, correct, it won't work. Workbench.library must be loaded at startup with the Cloanto ROM. You don't have to buy the Cloanto disks as you can load workbench.library in StartupSequence.

The real problem however is, not many folks know this and users are inevitably going to mix old ROM & Cloanto disks and vice-versa. There's some users not to happy about this.

Do some googling... you'll see.

Not to mention, try to find an original A500/2000 3.1 ROM...ANYWHERE!
I need one and it seems impossible. You'd have to get a burned one somewhere. Of course, you caould always load a ROM image at startup too. But what a fiasco! :(

@magnetic,

3.x ROM's don't have "workbench.library" on board. Must use A4000T install disks so they they are on HD boot drive.

3.X Rom's, meaning this product specifically...
https://www.amigaforever.com/kb/16-125

An Older AO discussion.... (to possibly get workbench.library)
http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=71113

And read this as there may be some dependency problems using a new workbench.library.
