Does Aros run under UAE  :-? Is that a 68k compile of the whole OS?

Is there even a 68k version of Aros? I have never heard of Aros running under UAE. It is usually run as a standalone OS or hosted ontop of linux or similar.

It is possible to use AfA on 3.1 but you need some files from 3.9:

1. Rename C:SetPatch to SetPatch.old
2. Copy AmigaOS3.9:OS-Version3.9/Workbench3.5/Libs/icon.library to Libs:
3. Copy AmigaOS3.9:OS-Version3.9/Workbench3.9/Libs/workbench.library to Libs:
4. Copy AmigaOS3.9:OS-Version3.9/Workbench3.9/C/SetPatch to C:

If it's complaining about datatypes.library not being a high enough version, then copy that from 3.9 as well over the top of the 3.1 version.

Ok, open a shell and type "version datatypes.library" (without the quotes) and let us know what version it reports.

That's odd. Since you do actually have a supported version of datatypes.library, I think the next step is to run SnoopDOS to see what it is actually causing it to fail. It may be that you have some other file missing which is preventing datatypes.library from working which is why it reports a failure to load datatypes.library.

You would need to put SnoopDOS in your startup-sequence, somewhere before AfA_OS_Loader. The line you would need to add would be something like:

Run >NIL: Path:To/SnoopDOS/SnoopDOS

(obviously correcting the path to point to wherever you put SnoopDOS)

That will cause a SnoopDOS window to open before AfA_OS_Loader tries to launch, and you can then check the SnoopDOS log window for errors related to AfA_OS_Loader or datatypes.library.

Edit - WBStart won't help you here.

Sounds to me like something is very b0rked in your 3.9 installation. I would suggest reinstalling TBH as there are clearly a lot of files missing, corrupt, or missing supporting files which are required for correct operation.
