A4000T, OS3.9 and pain!
« on: February 25, 2007, 01:05:57 PM »
Hi - I hope someone can help me.

I have a 4000T with CS060/SCSI - fresh 4gb partition on a clean bootable drive.

Because it is clean and I therefore cannot boot the cd, I created the emergency boot disk which boots up into workbench 3.9 from a copy of the emergency-boot folder from the cd which is held on the hdd - I did this because I was unable to configure the boot floppy such that the cd worked.

So no problems there, can get wb3.9 up and managed to run the installer.

The installer ran OK and duly populated the hdd but it will not boot. Each time I get invalid resident library after the loadwb command.

ROMS are def 3.1 (have double checked in case...) and I tried replacing the rom update file in devs: with the one from emegency-boot - in fact I tried all sorts and nothing works, just get invalid resident library which means no wb

Can anyone help? My knowledge is a bit thin - new amiga after having retired them for a good number of years!

I have the workbench.library in libs: from the cd also so am baffled.  My install 3.1 disk does the same thing but the workbench.library is missing from that disk so would expect it.

Please help!
