OS 3.9 installation issues

After some googling, I came across this thread which explains what ERROR #80000004 means: http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=11743

In Post #3 Piru mentions the following:

"Error 80000004 means CPU has executed illegal instruction (instruction is not identified by the CPU). The reason for this error can be numerous. In simplest case it's just some single program misbehaving, in worst case it's indication of a failing hardware."


I also found this thread which sounds a bit familiar (although it's an A4000): http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=49805

My guess is that you really need to copy the 68040.library from your WarpEngine disk to your Emergency Disk, because even though the version numbers are the same, the library might have been patched in order to work with the WarpEngine.

Try this first, and if it fails, you might consider following the instructions by Thomas in the above mentioned thread.

The version of SetPatch is at this point irrelevant - the problem is that your ROM-Updates file is corrupt. The thing in DEVS: This needs replacement with a version with a proper checksum. (-:

I'd look into these suggestions first.

What version of PFS are you using? There's a few different ones, cpu specific I believe. Can you shed any light on that? Might be worth while trying the whole install under good ol' FFS. Well, it's something else to try at least.
