Brussels, December 18, 2014
Hyperion Entertainment is thrilled to announce shipment of AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition to dealers has been started. This means that the first customers will get their own copy of AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition right before christmas, just in time to put it underneath the christmas tree.

Resized Image
Since the initial release of AmigaOS 4.1 more than six years ago, functionality and user experience have been steadily improved by six free major updates and over 88 free smaller ones through AmiUpdate. AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition defines the new baseline by consolidating all previous updates, bringing new long awaited features and stability improvements and last but not least enabling the user to make a clean installation in one go. Additionally it comes professionally produced as full version on physical media in a nice DVD box, together with a booklet containing installation instruction as well as a little extra for only EUR 29.95 suggested retail price (incl. VAT, may vary depending on your location).

AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition is currently available for:

AmigaOne XE, SE and MicroA1
AmigaOne X1000
AmigaOne 500/Sam460
Sam440
Pegasos 2
Amiga 1200/3000/4000

Customers can find a list of possible dealers at http://www.amigaos.net/content/4/where-buy.
Interested dealers can register themselves and order AmigaOS by writing to orders@hyperion-entertainment.biz.

Hyperion Entertainment and the whole team behind AmigaOS wish a merry christmas, happy new year and lots of fun with AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition!

Pushed out on social media, good response so far. I would like to know whether a download option is planned? The release date is incredibly close to Christmas to ensure consumers get their copy before the big day would be incredibly handy to be able to download it today, burn it to disc install it tomorrow.

Now changed to -

Stock Expected: T.B.A.

And changed back to 30th December


Looks like T.B.A is entered to each new version as it's added and then updated to the correct date.

djrikki,
There is no download option. This is a complete release on pressed optical disk, in a proper case with printed labels.
There is also no upgrade option, it's designed to install on a clean partition.

A lot more fun that trying toupgrade an existing partition and getting an unbootable system because it didn't go to plan. Some kickstart files need removeing, kicklayouts need upgrading, *many* system components need replacing and some new ones too.

My advice would be:

Whilst waiting for the Disc to arrive:

Backup any partitions using JXFS reformat with SFS2 and restore stata.

Backup SYS: to somewhere like work:workbench_backup. or if you have a spare partition install to that.

Once it arrives.

Format the partition, boot from CD and install.

Then restore components to the boot disk as required disk, and only those that you require. And restore entries in s:user-stsrtup as required by copy and pasting each individual block.

No, but JXFS partitions will be mounted as read only.
Everyone must go away from JXFS

It's depricated and mounted read only by default ( you can overide that for emergency usage if required bu unlocking the volume, but I'd receomend migration in adavance of isntallation of FE).

For a file system, new is not necessarily an advantage. I'd much rather commit my data to an older, more well-tested workhorse - that is, when I'm not betatesting, of course .

Best regards,

Niels

If you have the OS on its own partition and the rest (programs, data, etc) on other partitions, then that isn't any problem

After installation you just fix the assigns to the other partition(s) and you are up and running like normal

A special version for Sams boards will be perfect instead to spend money two times like my case, I have buy the versions for Sam440ep and Sam460ex, in this case I'll wait for the the OS4.2.

Well. No one knows when 4.2 will come. Besides, those 2 copies will be about half the price of a normal 4.1 copy. :-)

Currently I have a triple-boot setup on my Sam460 with:
