AmigaSYS 4: Update 1.3 on e-uae problem

[nicholas]

Colour me stupid, but how in the name of God am I supposed to install the Update 1.3 on e-uae?

The online help is such a mess I can't figure it out.

The archivew just has an .HDF file but when I add it to my .uaerc it doesn't appear on the emulated Amiga as a hard disk.

What happened to nice simple LHA files? :/

There used to be instructions for previous updates.  It was basically downloading the file, which was a HDD image, mounting it and running some binary from within, while on AmigaSYS run.

Now tell me how to update AmigaSYS from Amiga Future 2010 :-)

The instructions say "Add the HDF to .uaerc"

No instructions as to HOW one is supposed to do this.

With WinUAE it's a matter of just click on a few buttons but e-uae has the worst GUI I've ever had the misfortune to use and won't let me add a HDF to the config.

Adding it manually as so doesn't seem to work. :/

Code: [Select]

hardfile2=rw,DH0:$(FILE_PATH)/amiga/AmigaSYS/AmigaSYS/AmigaSYS4E-UAE.hdf,32,1,2,512,0,
hardfile=rw,32,1,2,512,$(FILE_PATH)/amiga/AmigaSYS/AmigaSYS/AmigaSYS4E-UAE.hdf
filesystem2=rw,DH1:Work:$(FILE_PATH)/amiga/AmigaSYS/Work,0
filesystem=rw,Work:$(FILE_PATH)/amiga/AmigaSYS/Work
[B]hardfile3=rw,DH2:$(FILE_PATH)/amiga/AmigaSYS/AmigaSYS/AmigaSYS4-UAE-R1.3-Upgrade.hdf,32,1,2,512,0,
hardfile=rw,32,1,2,512,$(FILE_PATH)/amiga/AmigaSYS/AmigaSYS/AmigaSYS4-UAE-R1.3-Upgrade.hdf[/B]

Why not just run WinUAE under wine and copy the contents of the HDF to a regular host directory based disk?

Or is this on a non x86 platform?

Because for some unknown reason WinUAE 2.3.0 (32bit) under Wine1.3 on 64-bit Ubuntu is really slow.  (Around 2 or 3 fps!)

Is it just the display update that sucks? If so, you should still be able to perform the extraction of the contents.

No probs, I fixed the slowness prob with wine and decided on a plain 3.1 install instead.

i only need asmone anyway.
