I believe the stack size problem is fixed with newest SetPatch...

SetPatch (V44.38) has already been installed.  Patch list:
        68060 Support Code Loaded
        Enabled Advanced Graphics Modes
        ramlib signal usage
        stack size check for CON:, RAW:, RAM:, PAR:, PRT:, SER:
        graphics/WritePixelLine8()
        graphics/WriteChunkyPixel()
        Enabled data cache

I would recommend staying with AmigaOS3.9 especially if you have a RTG gfx board. If you don't have a RTG board, I would recommend you get one. It makes a huge difference even on a 68030.

I checked Scout and my ramlib stack is still set to 2k. I am using all the latest patches to a custom 3.9 BlizKicked ROM (MAPROM). I don't have stability issues. Did you get crashes from the ramlib before installing the patch? I'll have to dl and read MCP's docs now.

I have a C64/3D RTG board, but without a Buster 11, it doesn't work in the A3000.


I'm pretty sure I ran my CV64/3D in my 3000 without Buster 11. It was rock solid on my Amiga although I did upgrade to the Buster 11 later. I used P96 and it was more stable and bug free than the Voodoo driver I use now. The boards performance matches the 3000 well and provides a huge improvement over ECS. Maybe the problem you are having with the crashes is related to the CV64/3D not working. I think it's time to do some cleaning. You should also push down on all the socketed chips on the motherboard, especially memory chips. They work up over time from heat cycling. It could also be the power supply getting old but I would try everything else first. You might blow out the power supply though.

Thanks, I'll look into the ramlib patch. I thought the BlizKick romfixes was unnecessary with the latest patched AmigaOS 3.9 modules. I'll have another look.

Any change in the errors?

A Buster 11 may be worth tracking down. It fixes some bugs and it's faster at Zorro transfers.
