OS3.1 thinks my 060 is an 040
« on: March 28, 2008, 04:52:38 PM »
This is probably a really easy one, but I haven't installed 3.1 from scratch for a long time. I have decided to do so due to niggly problems with my 3.9 installation.

I have installed 3.1 on a new disk, and initially it wouldn't boot at all after the installation. I booted with no S-S and copied 68#?.library from my 3.9 installation to my 3.1 installation and it booted ok. However, "cpu" reports that I have a 68040. I downloaded 68060-V44_3 and copied everything from the Libs drawer to Libs:, and now 3.1 won't boot any more. The original libraries from my 3.9 installation correctly report a 68060, so I'm wondering whether this could be a setpatch issue. I'm using the one which came with 3.1.

Thinking about it now, I seem to remember I have to delete one of the libs (68040.library?) and rename one to replace it (the dummy?) but I'm really fuzzy on this so would really appreciate a pointer.

Ok thanks for that. I noticed when I was installing CGX that some of the libraries were 040 versions. Is there a hack to make the system appear (correctly) to be an 060 so that software which uses the cpu command to decide which version to install will detect the 060?

[EDIT]
Also, is it safe to use newer versions of setpatch with 3.1? For example the 3.9 setpatch? Would that fix the problem?

Because 3.1 always felt faster to me, and building the system with just what I want on top of an empty 3.1 installation feels cleaner than customising 3.9.

Would this updated SePpatch help with the CPU issue?

Setpatch 43.6b (linked by me above) plus the cpu command from OS3.9 has solved this problem.

@keropi
I'm using cybppc.device with PFS partitions. Should be ok shouldn't it?
