How to install Aros For Amiga onto an amiga?

@theformula

I deleted Assign AfA_: Sys:Afa_os_libs ; from the sequence rebooted and still had the AmigaDOS screen coming up saying "wrong arguments" so once that went and workbench started I had a dig around in the afa os folder and seen the documentation file and had a little read of it and it says that I needed to put C:morelibspace before the setpatch command and so idid that saved it and I no longer get the "wrong arguments" error and I was able to access the skins tab, when I selected the skin I want I saved and rebooted but as soon as I went to open up my drive to access prefs my miggy locks up and I have to do a reset

no matter what I do my miggy now locks up?

Any ideas

That's disappointing.

Same documentations mentioned to put
c:wait 1
before calling Iprefs, the delay is in seconds.
Did you try that?
2 seconds wouldn't hurt.

I've done a fresh and clean install. CyberGX this time.
Except for a little typo, everything else went without flaws or errors.

I remember once i'd encountered nasty crashes when workbench showed up, any click gave me stripes on screen and system locked.
But it's long since and i forgot the reason for this behaviour.

Well. some nitpicking:
Amiga OS has never been case sensitive.
Placing morelibspace behind setpatch should be tested before recommending.
Attach s-s or wrap them with tags. it's bad style to put these wall of text in a thread.
A ; at the end of a line should not cause any trouble but makes no sense without a comment.

I've asked for screenmode and Kickstart. Still no answer. Are any of those boing bags installed? Has OS 3.9 been updated?
Blizkick or any other rom mapper installed?
What RTG system is installed?

There is no sign of any of those prefs programs for your M1230XA.
Where do you start those tools?

I am using kickstart 3.1 and amigaos 3.9 + bb 1+2 (I wont install 3 + 4 because I am not very experienced at editing the s-s as you may have already guessed  ), Software for the m1230xa is setxa, I don't have blizkick installed and I don't have any rom mapper installed either.

It's very easy to import a s-s from other users, if they attach the s-s as a text file :biglaugh:

Your system specs looks quite average. So AfA_OS might fail on Voodoo/Mediator settings?

You mentioned grim reaper. How did you set up this? Afaik reaper is part of OS4.

Are you using CGX or P96?

[carvedeye]

I may have got mixed up with saying grimm reaper, the error I was meaning was when the system boots I get an error saying press left mouse button, I thought AfA_OS was supposed to be minimum spec of an 020 or higher?

It would be great if someone will do this
