AmigaOS4 FE update 3 incoming from Amiga40 Germany

@kas1e

Is there any possibility Amiga OS 4.2 will be focused exclusively on AEON/ACube products, new Mirari ppc board and (maybe) old PowerPC Macs?

I doubt classics and first generation PowerPc Amiga boards will be supported, so I hope there'll be an hotfix for Pegasos 2 boards..

@flash
Dunno, but i didn't see anything pointing that os4.2 will skip support for any HW which we supported now, imho make no sense while it all powerpc still.

I have AmiDVD from Enhancer Software 2.2 and it does not work. No GUI, no error messages, no crash. As far as I can see, none of the Enhancer classes/gadgets were deleted or overwritten by Update 3, so in theory everything required by this version of AmiDVD is still intact.

Perhaps AmiDVD checks some AmigaOS libraries for version info.

Hmm, maybe a little. I seem to recall I was previously getting around 40-50 MB/s, now fast.com reports 80 MB/s. Still a fraction of what a PC on my network can achieve. It's a pity I don't run Linux anymore, I can't do a like-for-like comparison on the same hardware.

The update was hassle-free using AmiUpdate. Thanks to all involved!

Quite possibly, AmiDVD contains a check for the Kickstart version, or the version of some other system component(s). Licensing reasons I guess.

AFAIK it should be fixed on Enhacer v2.3, but dunnot when it will be out.
