@walkero

I have two partitions set as bootable. Primary and test. Normally they show up (defined in kickstart layout file) so I can choose, but after updating Uboot they do not show up anymore. It just boots the primary. My guess is that the variable was changed.

X5000 Uboot variable for displaying different boot partitions
Just popping in
Just popping in


A quick X5000 question:

What is the Uboot variable to control if the different bootable partitions are displayed as options after you in the initial bootmenu choose AmigaOS? DH0, DH1 ... and so on.

Tried the wiki - https://wiki.amigaos.net/wiki/UserDoc:BIOS - but it seems a bit outdated ....

Thank you!

@jabirulo

Thank you! That is the version I am running.

Think this is some kind of server error.

Re: Bootarguments for Qemu AmigaOne install on Mac M1

I managed to mount the CD (Qemu on mac has a GUI for that I found out), installed a browser and got going. Now running a Update 2 system with latest version of AmiUpdate and also updated RTL8139 devicedriver.

After Update 2 the system seems to run fine and stable.

However, I get the error below when I try to use AmiUpdate. Loads fine and finds the updates on the servers. However, it crashes when I try to update:

https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/6f4yeaj ... q6k8pi3zlp9emk5n5zpg&dl=0

Is that normal on Qemu? Or something that can be fixed? Maybe more RAM to the system?

Or can it be AmiSSL related? I have the latest 5.20 installed but do I need 4.12 also? I think I read that somewhere.

My bootargument is this:

qemu-system-ppc -machine amigaone -rtc base=localtime -serial stdio -vga none -device sm501 -drive media=disk,format=raw,file=amigahd.img -device rtl8139,addr=0x09,netdev=nic -netdev user,hostname=amigaone-os4,hostfwd=tcp::22220-:22,id=nic -rtc base=localtime -device loader,cpu-num=0,file=bboot -device loader,addr=0x600000,file=Kickstart.zip


Thank you!

Short update:

This seems like an AmiUpdate/server bug of some kind.

When I try to update from the Codebench.co.uk server it crashes with the DSI
When I update from the Hyperion server it downloads and install the updates fine except the two MUI updates

Examining the log it says "Redirection required, following link ...." when it crashes.

Can anyone alse confirm?

@balaton

Thank you for replying

Correction. It looks like internet access works afterall. Accessed a timeserver and that fetched the time. Apparantly I had made an error trying to do that until now.

Is there a boot argument to mount the ISO without having the system boot from it? I need to install some extras like a browser, ftp-client etc.?

Also need to get a new version of AmiUpdate. The one on the system is way to old to be able to update anything.

Filesharingwise I am primarily just unsure what to do. I have tried this argument to add USB: -device usb-storage,drive=ufat but I get this error: qemu-system-ppc: -device usb-storage,drive=ufat: Property 'usb-storage.drive' can't find value 'ufat'

Is there a way to add a folder or something?

Bootarguments for Qemu AmigaOne install on Mac M1

Sorry if this has been discussed before or if this is nooblike.

Following this guide I have a working AmigaOne install running on my M1 Mac.

However, I can not get it to go online or share files with th Mac side, so I can not really get any further with it.

I use the bootarguments below and have set up and RTL8139 connection on the Amiga side but I can not get it to online.

Sharing files I simply do not know how to. Have tried setting up a USB storage solution but it errors out.

Any recommandations?

Deleting the Warp3DSI removed the DSI on WipeOut

Still have no sound. But when I exit I get an error that maybe can point towards the problem. Here is a link to the screengrab.

I am using the Creative Labs Soundblaster Audigy FX (24bit/192kHz 5.1) with the HD audio driver. Latest version 6.8.

@samo79

I am aware of that And have updated to the version of CDplayer.library you are pointing to. However, I have no sound at all. No sound effects. Nothing. And I have enabled AHI sound.

BTW: I do not have a physical CD in my X5000 so I have ripped the CD and mounted the image. Have anyone managed to get the WipeOut music working form a mounted image?

Maybe you could make a short tutorial on what the optimal NovaBridge install is? What libs where and what version etc. Just so that people are on the same page before testing.

I have WipeOut running fine but no sound for instance. And i get a DSI when I exit.

Just a thought! And thank you in advance!

Caught in real life ...

I have thought about doing it my self but have gone away from that idea again. Risk is just too great since I do not have the experience or the equipment.

I am located in Copenhagen. I have reached out to the Amiga community here in Denmark to see if there are any SMD wizards around.

Have you experience with X5000 boards? I am looking to get the cap reattached and the rest of the board looked after carefully to see if any of the other components are considering abandoning ship ...

My X5000 is getting old ....

Today I was moving two SATA cables and suddenly one of the capacitors (C1162) FELL OFF!

Capacitor

The machine works - at least now. Anyone know what the capacitor is related to?

And last but not least any suggestions on how to solder it back on again? I am not the experienced with SMD soldering. To say the least!

Yes I have Warp3D SI installed. Latest version.

@Capehill

Thank you. Will look there. But my problem is not related to OGLES2/Nova - at least not as I see it

@all
Thank you for all your good suggestions

I am still VERY interested in hearing from other R9 290X users.

@walkero

As far as I know Spencer is a Warp3DNova game. That works fine. Are there any other?

Gorky 17 freezes the system on the opening boat scene. The speedboat sails for a second or two then the system freezes. It works fine on a clean update 1 install.

At the same time Shogo works just fine on my update two partition so I am beginning to suspect something hardware related with my card. As in it not beeing completely supported.

I have recently turned on a couple of more fans in my system to get some more cooling going so I do not think it is heat related. What is the best temperature for the CPU? Mine is running around 70.
