So I'm trying to install RunInUAE and it fails to install with the Grim Reaper message and errors about creating directories.

I'm new to this, so any help is appreciated.

If you have installed Enhancer Software, you must update it via AmiUpdate.
Enhancer Software replaces the main system files.
They have already been corrected but require updating.
The second option is to restore the original files supplied with the system.

The latest version of RunInUAE can be found here: https://www.amigans.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=110393
It also does not install the CD supplied with the system. It has a restriction regarding wdloader.

Still new and learning.

AmiUpdate will know I have Enhancer installed?

Because you have these files

EDIT:
My mistake – I meant Amistore, not AmiUpdate.

I had this isse about 1 year ago. My DIR was a newer enhancer one and it appears to have had a hiccup.

Per a friends request, he recommended I try "Replace the Enhancer dir command in c directory with the original OS version. You could rename the Enhancer version to keep it available if you need to for some reason."

I grabbed the older DIR from my Amiga OS installer and then was able to install RunInUAE.

Can't get the joystick to work but can play keyboard based games so far.

Good luck to you!

Do you have directions? Not sure what you mean, which directory is it, and from the installer which directory to I replace it with etc?

Not in front of my Amiga right now as I am trying to get moving to get some chores done (large dump run today fighting the rain beating down on me haha) but on your SYS partition you need to locate and open the C directory and look for that DIR you have in there, maybe rename it so you know to switch back if something goes more haywire, and copy into your C the older one you may have on your Amiga OS emergency/installer disk.

I think some people had newer Enhancer versions than I did and those may have worked but I did not so used an older one and then RunInUAE installed.

I think the one I grabbed from my old Amiga OS CD was dating back to 2012 or something. 53.3 or something going off some notes I had.

I think my old thread showed I had some enhancer 54.x version and may have been my issue. Unsure if your issue but that is what worked for me.

Hope that helps.

Just the 1.

Rename the current DIR that is in your C directory and then copy in the older DIR and leave that name as is.

Reboot and hope install of RunInUAE works.

It did for me.

You are renaming the current one you been using as you may want to go back to that one if you have more or other issues.

For now I am still using my older 53.x but need to look into if I can find a newer one that seems to still be Ok.

So you are saying to rename the "C" drawer to "C_Backup" and put the old one back in place?

No.

Rename the DIR that is inside the C Directory (or Drawer) so you don't lose it.

JUST that 1 file. Say DIR-OLD

Then copy the older DIR you should have someplace into the C Directory.

Reboot and see what happens.

Always remember, tread at your own rate as renaming wrong things may be more issues or no boot so be careful.

Just offering guidance here for what I did.

You rock buddy! :)

I ended pulling the binary "dir" from the install cd and installing the cd version of RunInUAE, got that working, then I installed the update, which worked.

I then replaced my backed up "dir" binary.

I'm in business!

Thanks again!!!

Super!

Well Done!

Have fun.

If you ever get joystick or some controller to work, teach me how you got it to work.

I don't have that working yet. hahaha

Have fun!

Okay now that RunInUAE is installed.

I'm looking to use Term4.8 with Tesler.

I keep getting Tesler is busy. Is there more things I need to do in order for it to work in the emulation? Perhaps I need to install or setup networking?
