Help please!

 Just installed ImageFX to my HD and now something's messed up. It must have overwritten a newer file with an older, but which one? And I performed an "expert" install to avoid this very situation. Upon startup, OS 3.9 now says that it can't load the dock because resource.library v. 44 is not found. Well, I copied that back to Libs and now when the computer boots, I get a ramlib error which renders the computer useless. I can't even boot from a 3.1 WB floppy. No icons appears. Nothing.

Before it got to this stage, I tried commenting out what ImageFX added to startup-sequence and user-startup to no avail. At the CLI, when requesting a version for resource.library - it tells me that it cannot find information for resource.library. I re-copied v.44 and get the results in the first paragraph.

I've installed and used this program before, but never had this happen to me  :-(

As far as the 3.1 floppy not booting - might be something in that updated ROM. :( One of the updated modules prevents floppy booting from anything but NDOS disks, and I haven't had time yet to figure out which one. Hopefully you can boot without startup and copy back the original library (that is if you renamed it instead of deleting it).

With Damion's special ROM installed, I can't access the floppy to get the correct 68060.library re-installed.  :-(    Actually, the floppy spins and sounds as if it is booting 3.1, but before too long, I get a couple of yellow Guru screens and then nothing.


Sorry about that! It might be one of the BB2 updates (I don't think it's Piru's exec or BlizKick modules). I think I will mess around with it this eve and try to figure out what it is. Do you have a KS switcher around? Sometimes it's handy to switch back to a standard 3.1 ROM for troubleshooting.

Quick Amiga 101 question: how do I see what devices are mounted from the CLI in the
off chance the system sees my flash drive?  (can't remember what I named those things)


Entering ASSIGN should do it.
