I would think so but have never tried without doing so first

@Alkaron

Should be able to shortly.

@Alkaron


I had this problem when using the original Elbox drivers.
Installing the latest drivers fixed that.

@nubechecorre

I used the MMCD.
Have only installed the system drivers.
Nothing else.
No graphics/sound/Fastethernet etc.
Haven't even run the config program.

I am reinstalling (Again)
I had been testing OS4.0 on a different HD.
Went back to my normal HD and the screen situation isn't as good.
A bit slow and with less resolutions available.
This installation was the 1st one I tried so might have chosen incorrectly with some of the options.

If it is no better after this installation, I will try running the medconfig program.

@nubechecorre

Tried that, didn't work.
Used the latest Elbox drivers and that did the trick.

@nubechecorre

Will try that then.
Didn't have any more time to try yesterday.
Pub, match, back the pub again and the spent some time with the missus before she killed me.

@nubechecorre

Mediator files on OS4.

Tried again just installing mediator system files, without configuration.

Picked Voodoo screen and tested it.
Worked fine so saved it.
Now machine locks up after loading.

@nubechecorre

Made a bit of a mistake, just recovering a backup.

@nubechecorre

Yes and the graphics files.

@nubechecorre

Installing the Mediator System files for Graphics has sorted me out.

@nubechecorre

Checked all that.
It's all as it should be.

@nubechecorre

Yes mate, cheers.

Got a new one now.

OS4.0 installed but viewable only on a TV.
Using a Mediator.

No PCI cards found.
Wasn't sure if I was supposed to install the Mediator drivers though.

Haven't yet so may try that next.

@nubechecorre

The pub can wait till tomorow.
I am going home to sort it.

@nubechecorre

Cheers mate, very much appreciated.
The only problem is when to try now.

Normally go the pub after work on a Friday.
Have been asked by five different people, am I going.

Just want to go home and install OS4.0.

Sad or committed?

@nubechecorre

In work myself now so will be waiting anyway.
I will try the two suggested and if isn't either let me know when you get chance tonight.
Cheers mate.

Disaster.
AOS.4 has turned up.
Inserted boot floppy and CD was activated.
Screen flashed some colours and then nothing else happend.
In desperation resorted to the manual.
Seems I have to disable the maprom feature.
I cant't do this because the boot menu screen on the PPC isn't visible.
I can sort of see something but the picture jumps like mad.

@Mikey_C

Doing no harm carrying on and could do some good.
There more people buying and using OS4.0, the better.

Only ever used Opus 5.5.
What are the main improvements with Magellan?

@Kicko

I can't mate, it's doing my head in.
I have already rearranged my HD ready for duel booting between 3.9 and 4.0.
Created some new partitions moved others around.

Have installed the latest version of SFS and reformatted partitions.
Have started downloading software for 4.0.

I wish the announcement was made the day before release.
Then it would have been only one sleepless night.

Oh well, Xmas has come early this year.

Eight more days, plus whatever it take for delivery through the post system.

Will have to let my boss know I'll be wanting a few days off shortly.

@TetiSoft

Well to be honest, that's no big problem for myself.
That's the position in now under 3.9 anyway and it hasn't bothered me.

I have a telly next to my monitor anyway for use with my PS2.
Obviously be more convenient if I didn't have to use the telly at all for the Miggy.

But it's a very small price to pay if it means I can have the use of all the cards currently connect to my Mediator.

Cheers.
