Ok specs follow...

Tietokoneen nimi: Mac mini
Tietokoneen malli: PowerMac10,1
Prosessorin tyyppi: PowerPC G4 (1.2)
Prosessorien lukumäärä: 1
Prosessorin nopeus: 1.42 GHz
L2-välimuisti (prosessoria kohden): 512 Kt
Muisti: 512 Mt
Väylänopeus: 167 MHz
Boot ROMin versio: 4.8.9f1

And my result with the latest iso are corrupted color screen but mouse and kb works.

1.2hgz and 1.4ghz mac minis have the same specs and 1.5 aka "silent update" have 64mb gfx card and updated boot rom... i dont think that rom firmware cause errors like corrupted screens, this come by atiradeon.chip, but this is only my humble opinion.

Yes, all minis ppc have radeon 9200 just 1.2 and 1.4 have 32mb and 1.5 64mb thats all, but i dont understand why this corrupted screens just for 32mb of gfx memory.

I get the same screen with corrupted colors predominating purple using ati_safe, my mini is a 32mb gfx memory.
It's specs are:

  Nombre del equipo:   Mac mini
  Modelo de ordenador:   PowerMac10,1
  Tipo de CPU:   PowerPC G4  (1.2)
  Unidades de CPU:   1
  Velocidad de la CPU:   1.42 GHz
  Caché de nivel 2 (por CPU):   512 KB
  Memoria:   1 GB
  Velocidad del bus:   167 MHz
  Versión de la ROM de arranque:   4.8.9f1
  Número de serie:   YM51295NRHU

What other factors could be causing this'?  I ALSO HAVE Gentoo Linux installed in a partition...But I CAN'Y see the possible relation.

Id like to understand what the later firmwares add/upgrade and implement.


Would it be worth testing the other ATIRadeon drivers from A1,Classic or at some stage 4.1 install disc as there probably all slightly different?

Am I correct in thinking that this iso that is on piratebay includes the AOS4 Final files.  So you dont need a copy of AOS4 Final for the A1 to try this ?

JJ: That's NOT the point here. We're discussing how to boot it.

No its very much is the point.  The discussion is about illegal/pirated software and several users point out where to get said software.

It breaks so many site rules.

It seems that the mods and Wayne, don’t care.  I think I may know why, but you can't have one rule for some discussions and another for others

No one is pointing or providing links to any source of illegal files. We are discussing about the booting process, and that is not illegal in this board if i'm not mistaken.

nobody is pasting links to where the files are located, so there is no problem.

Anyone with half a clue can google "Amiga Moana" and I'm sure links will show up, so saying piratebay and saying "google it" are the same difference in my book.


Carry on, just dont post links.  I'm interested to see where this goes I just dont see the point.

What if you get it working, how complete is this version?  How stable?  How current?  I'm betting its behind the current version of OS4 for A1.
