Dam it ive forgot !!
« on: February 24, 2016, 10:29:30 PM »
I feel like ive been mind wiped :/

Trying to setup my A1200T/BPPC and ive forgot how to do it lol.
I remember a thread on one of these amiga boards a guide on how to setup my A1200T but i cant find it. Ive also got a tv card to go into the tower now to try and get whdload to work on it.

I know ive got to setup
bppcfix ?
warpos 4 then 5.1 ?
mediator setup cd ?
Boing bag updates 1 to 4 ?
voodoo picasa setup ?

No idea on the order or if im missing a step.
Ive got as far as raw 3.9 with fastata installed.

I will keep googling.
Any help appreciated.

BlizzardPPCfix is not needed anymore with actual WarpOS! It is included there with the checkmark "earlyTerm" and set to Terminator2

Also install ppcemulibs which can be found on aminet! This allows you to use 99% of PowerUP software inside WarpOS :D

@Oldscool_Mike
BlizzardPPCFix kicks Phase5 ppc.libary (which is in the ROM) out of the system and allows usage of WarpOS ppc.library:)


Are you sure? Not 1 guide says that. even guides from the last few years.

Ive got as far as installing boingbag update 2 but now it dont boot. Next step was to install bppcfix. Need to go back a step now.

UPDATE:

I tried different Teminator settings in warpos prefs.............no joy

OS3.9 clean install from making a boot disk -- works
Installed fastata -- works
Installed boingbag 1 -- works
Installed boingbag 2 intermediate including rom update -- failed
Installed boingbag 2 easy auto install -- errors but booted
Installed boingbag 3+4 -- errors and freezes on desktop before background pic loads
Installed bppcfix boots with random errors with the odd crash

looked in the startup file after updates and im not sure if its right.
When installing warpos from os3.9 cd which one am i supposed to install ?

Any help appreciated.

I have tried all kinds of different ways of setting it up. I have had it running with all the updates and mediator running, then i changed something and it all went wrong. I cant even remember how i got to that point. I forgot how much of a pain in the ass these machines can be to setup. The original guide i had was on my computer and i had a printed copy which i had in my hands just after xmas grrrr. Spending 140 hours on it googling and setting up and not getting very far. I wanted 3.9+ updates and a nice WHDload setup running either through the TV card or the voodoo. Maybe some other nice unique apps aswell. But it aint gonna happen.
