It's Turboprint resident option not Turbospool.

I've just gone into Prefs/internet/interfaces and set up an 'Internet' interface using the devs:networks/eth3com.device.
I selected use DHCP, and enttered the address of my router, and hey! presto I'm posting this from OS4 Final.

@all

Just found my old thread on AmigaWorld.
So I'll chech through that first, and come back if I have any further problems.

Thanks so far.

Hi Simon

The only way to 'safely' boot from different installs is by changing the boot priority of the partition, and then re-booting.
That way the correct kickstart and workbench are loaded together.

The problem you describe occurs when using the early startup menu to boot to workbench.
The early startup menu is not avaiable until kickstart is loaded, and at that point in time booting to a partition other than onr from which kickstart was loaded (the one with the highest boot priority) is veryy messy and unstable.

I had that problem when upgrading from upd#3 to upd#4.

On OS4 Final nothing, but on upd4 I have an ETH3COM file dated 6/10/2006.
Which I believe is when I connected my A1 to the Router.

In Devs:networks there is an eth3com.device on each installation,
but they are different size files, so I wonder where/how the ETH3COM file in Devs:netinterfaces came from.

I have a network/internet problem which may be relevant in this thread, instead of starting a new one.

I have OS4Final installed on a new partition, but I have also got my upd4 installation on another partiton, both are bootable, and I can swap by changing the boot priority and rebooting.

Anyway, my problem is that on OS4Final, when using IBrowse I get a "Host look up failed, no DNS entry found", if I use AWeb, I get a "cannot resolve DNS entry" error.

I can boot into update4 and connect ok, so it is some setting somewhere.

I am using a router, and in internet prefs I have added under hosts "192.168.0.1,router,router", and under name reoloution I have entered 192.168.0.2. These are the same entries I have under update4, so there is something silly I have not set.

Where was that mentioned, that would be so cool.

The best way (at the moment) is to select the post you want to reply to, use Amiga-c to copy the post to the clipboard.
Then click the reply button, and paste it into the reply box.
All you have to do then is enter the quote, and unquote code, before and after the pasted text.

XP also limits formatting a Fat32 partition to 32gb, even though no such limit exists in Fat32 itself.
Partition magic will quite happily format in Fat32, partitions greater than 32gb.

It's just Microsoft trying to force you to use NTFS by default.

I thought I would use this thread to sort out another problem with Aweb that I have, that involves downloading.

I have the above 'download.php' problem when downloading from OS4Depot, but I thought it was just a problem with php scripting, but it is good to know this will be fixed in the next release.

The problem I have is downloading .lha, or .pdf files from other sites using Aweb.
I save them to ram: for convenience, but they are always shown as a default too icon regardless of the type of file it is.
If I then use DOpus to remove the default icon, and re-open Ram: it is displayed using the correct icon.

I have only been using an Amiga online for a short time, so is this a problem with OS4 or with Aweb, and are they any settings in AWeb/OS4 I can set to correct this.


Thanks for any help.

Oops!!! I forgot.

NTFS is not implemented on OS4, as far as I know.

Crossdos will allow you to use fat32 formatted disks and usb drives.
There is an OS4 native version of crossdos which is used by the usb subsystem on OS4.

I have formatted USB drive om my A1, and it was recognised correctly under windows XP.
There is a problem with Win 98se, to do with associating long filename but that is specific to 98.
On XP everything is ok.

MMMMMMM, I wonder!!!!!!

Ibrowse 2.4 was only supposed to be released with OS4 final

This could be the biggest hint yet!!

It could possibly be a bit brighter, but I think it matches in well with the overall scheme of the site.

I think I read, when looking about, that skinnable colour schemes as per AW.net are planned, but not yet implemented.

Hi, All

When posting messages, how do I include smilies?
I have the enable smiley option ticked, but where are the smileys?

Do I need to learn what text to enter for each one?

Seeing you here, makes me understand the bye-bye thread on Amigaworld.

I say it's looking great.
