That's obviously MorphOS with an OS4 skin!
:lol:
Actually, I had a long chat with the better half recently and I think she maybe understands my geeky needs a bit better. I might be able to get away with another machine yet and there is a very obvious hole in my PPC collection.

The installation process was painless on my CSPPC A4000.

The only problem so far was with ALGOR : Installed with Luciferin the needed classes & stack it worked fine on 4.1, but after the update it won`t boot WB (note that I can hold both usb-mouse buttons and call the early ss menu!).

Thank you HammerD, I tried something that I had forgotten : installing poseidon on 4.1.3 (4.1 was a clear install, wiped out 4.0)

The thing is that I remember poseidon surviving resets and 3.9 to 4.0 boots (it was flashed to the ALGOR's EPROM).

Without changing a thing, after the update I can move the USB mouse pointer while on the 4.1.3 early startup-menu , but shortly after choosing the boot device (the 4.1.3 WB) it won`t boot to WB (black screen). If I disable the whole flashrom content, it boots fine.

I loaded the previous modules as were before, leaving out everything Poseidon-related stuff and I got it to boot! I think there must be a conflict with the WB  (I`ve already commented out the USB kickstart modules and the "USBCtrl start" command).
