Well upgrading from 8.0 to 8.1 doesn't work so I have no reason to think that 7.x to 8.0 to 8.1 would work, but I will try it.

Nope won't work. I tried it too. Something in 8.1 makes it crash with ShapeShifter and that may have to do with 060?

Hehe I googled around a bit on 8.1 on ShapeShifter and 060 and read some old post on Applefritter where TJLazer mentions running 8.1 on 060 in ShapeShifter.

So come on TJLazer come on and help us! ;-)

I've just had a thought. Maybe my Mac ROM is from a pre-060 or even pre-040 machine. Could this be why it doesn't work properly?

If you have a 1Mb ROM then it should be suitable for 040 I think?

Ken Lester is using one from a LC/Performa 575, but he's using UAE so it's effectively an 040. I wonder if it would work on a real Amiga with an 060?

Sorry for going a bit off topic.
I have been considering trying Shapeshifter myself.
Is there anyway to get a copy of the rom file legally without owning a Mac?
Something alomg the lines of Amiga Forever or whatever.

Just tried with a Performa 575 ROM as per Ken's details but the same thing happened. This must be an 060 thing. I did try turning of caches as detailed in the Shapeshifter documentation but this made no difference. Is there any way to fully degrade the 060 to an 040 temporarily? If not then I suppose I *could* put the original 030 back in my A4000 just to prove once and for all whether it's the CPU which is causing the problem.

Start your own thread? :roll: Sorry but it's really annoying when a thread gets sidetracked with a different problem and the problem the thread was supposed to be about never gets solved.
