On board scsi is not supported.  Use IDE or cyberstorm scsi.


JurassicCamper is correct.  Onboard SCSI is not supported that is why it is hanging and not picking up the CD to continue loading at the Splash screen.

After 10 hours over 2 weekends I can't get AmigaOS4.1FE to work with Amiga Forever 2016. I am sick of messing with it. What's more I bought 3 copies of AmigaOS4.1 FE for friends and 3 copies of Amiga Forever 2016 and they have not been able to get it to work. Just sick of the horse crap.


I feel for you, but you should contact Cloanto for support.   You paid for their product and they should be able to help you since they say it will run AmigaOS 4.1 Classic...

Well, I will see about moving it over to the cyber.scsi port then. I'll need to figure out how to get the CD drive working again with it. Is it as simple as just going into devs and changing from scsi.device to cyberscsi.device?

I also have a couple of IDE CD-RW drives and nothing on my IDE header at all currently. How would I add an IDE drive to cacheCDFS?


Well you should read the Section 1.0 "Installation/Booting" on the AmigaOS 4.1 Classic FAQ which is on the FE ISO.  It explains how to configure a CDROM connected to the Cyberstorm and have it boot directly using that - no boot floppy required.  That method is a little bit tricky, so it's easier to use the bootfloppy, but that will automatically detect the CDROM assuming it is setup correctly.  I usually verified everything was working properly under OS 3.9 first - eg. you can access the CDROM, see the PPC.  If it is you should be fine.  The fact that you got the bootlogo up tells me your PPC is working, which is good.
