SAM460ex wont boot!
« on: March 31, 2012, 11:21:09 PM »
Hi guys

p.s. sorry for doublecross but this is the 4th day I an trying to boot SAM460ex...

Well, after happy receiving SAM460ex from you guys, I couldnt wait it for arrive.

So, nearly 3 months later SAM finally arrived in onc piece, looking great!

Well now comes my problems:

- I bought midi tower case
- I bought a cooler and power for Tower Case
- I got Keyboard and a Mouse
- and 60GB SSD HD :)

So I am prepared for a ride.

Nut this ride wont start, now it is the 4th day :(

Over 10 old Amigans tried to install machine but it just wont boot from HD.

PLEASE take a look at "AmigaBootingNOT.zip"
http://www.djnick.rs/examples/AmigaBootingNOT.zip

This is step by step shapshotted in qick from iPhone...

Steps 1-10 are all possible combonations + tons of reboots...

After image 17.jpg AmigaOS4 boots and then take a look at:

image18 abd 19 are having problems with

ASSIGN: Can't find "RAM:T/"

Then more T: assigns and problems starts appearing, but wieh click 30 times CANCEL - there is a chance to boot into the AmigaOS4 but: resolution will be 640x480 [or similar, cant see as I have 24" full hd monitor.

My friends tried everything, I believe some of them works 10 years in IT industry, they only had headaches/

Everything seems simople:

You boot from USB HD selecting BootDevice1 [as fare as I understand - flash with OS4.1 installation is on flash named at USB HD in boot selector.

Then go esc and save settings and reboot.

then installation of OS4 should start - but it just wont happen.

We really have no ideas WHY all this hard happens...

HELP me explaining step by step HOW to boot AmigaOS4 from your Memory Flash I got in SAM

Hwo else? I formattedf HD, installed default Os4 preset and I got 3 partitions: 1 HD0 called Workbench, 2.nd is SWAP one and 3rd is WORK: 4th I can see is SSD OS4 too.

What to do?

All best
Nick, day 4th...
