Problems setting up E-UAE on my A1-XE
Not too shy to talk
Not too shy to talk


See User information
I can run E-UAE with AmigaForever 2008 from the CD-ROM but can't seem to setup E-UAE to run from my HDD. I have copied the files from AF2008 plus the kickstart rom images and rom.key. I think have edited the .uaerc file correctly but when I run E-UAE all I get is the grey amiga DOS window.

Is there someting else I must do to make AF Files work in E-UAE?

Any help gratefully acceted.

Any chance of someone posting their .uaerc file so I can see if I'm doing anything wrong?

Thanks

Initially, I would like to use the Amiga Forever Classic directories: System and Work so I can try E-UAE out. As I mentioned previously I am able run E-UAE on my A1-XE off the AF2008 CD but would like to install it to my HDD.

Later, if I can get it working, I will try to integrate AmiKit or AIAB.

Many thanks, I'll give it a go tomorrow.

UPDATE

Tried the .uaerc supplied but still get the same results. E-UAE seems to work but stalls at the gre amigados screen with the 1> cursor.

This is is the output from the EUAE window which seems to indicate all is OK. Am I missing some simple step? Any ideas anyone?
Thanks

Can you boot-up from the WB3.1 floppy disk? It's the most basic system. If i can do this, then I can work the system be it AmiKit, AIAB, or AmigaSys4. I don't know anything about Amiga Forever.

I have been using E-UAE 0.8.29-WIP3 SDL for a long time now.

I am not using the AmigaForever package, so there may be some differences. In my case there is no key file.

This is my configuration on my MicroA1 hard drive
I have a directory called E-UAE on my main OS4 system partition.
Inside that directory, I have the uae-sdl program, .uaerc file, Kick.rom file, a Workbench directory and a directory called ADFs.

The Workbench diectory contains a complete set of AmigaOS 3.1 system directories (from Workbench3.1 disk and Extras3.1 disk)

When I launch uae-sdl, it uses the .uaerc file and Kick.rom, as well as the startup-sequence, user-startup, fonts, libs, etc from my AmigaOS 3.1 Workbench directory.


My .uaerc file .....

# UAE Configuration File for Amiga OS 4.0 pre-release update #4

Here is a 'quick and dirty' test I just performed using a CD-R containing a complete system backup.

I am using the AmigaOS4PPC version of E-UAE 0.8.29.WIP3-SDL.

I copied the uae-sdl program and my .uaerc file to Ramdisk and made a few changes to the .uaerc file to access required files on my CD-R.

I double-click on the uae-sdl program icon in Ramdisk and it uses the modified .uaerc file to find the rest of my AmigaOS 3.1 system on the CD-R.

On my CD, I have a drawer called E-UAE.
In that drawer, I have my, Kick.rom file and Workbench drawer.
The Workbench drawer contains a complete set of AmigaOS 3.1 system directories.

I have modified the .uaerc file to the following to access the required files on my CD-R disc:

# UAE Configuration File for Amiga OS 4.0 pre-release update #4
# E-UAE 0.8.29-WIP3 SDL
# emulating NTSC Amiga 2000HD with Amiga OS 3.1
#

kickstart_rom_file=CD0:E-UAE/Kick.rom

filesystem2=rw,DH0:Workbench:CD0:E-UAE/Workbench,1

joyport0=mouse
joyport1=kbd1

cpu_type=68000

chipset=ecs_agnus
ntsc=true
cpu_speed=max
cpu_compatible=no
cpu_24bit_addressing=no
chipmem_size=2
fastmem_size=4
gfx_fullscreen_amiga=true
gfx_fullscreen_picasso=yes
gfx_linemode=double
gfx_width=640
gfx_height=480
gfx_center_horizontal=true
gfx_center_vertical=true

Of course, I can't save anything from AmigaOS 3.1 because the CD-R is read only, but at least it proves a concept. You could find the correct directories on the AmigaForever CD and fill in the blanks for

kickstart_rom_file=CD0:<path>
and
filesystem2=rw,DH0:Workbench:CD0:<path>
and
kickstart_key_file=CD0:<path>

Thanks guys, I think the problem may lie with AF2008, I can run EUAE from the files on the AF2008 CD but of course cannot save or change anything. When I copy the relevant directories to my HDD I get the grey DOS screen.

I seen to recall that AF2008 has some additional protection (other than the ROM) that prevents it being simply copied to a HDD. When it is installed on a Windows systems this extra protection is copied automatically?

I may need to try with a Kickstart ROM image acquired from one of my Classic Amigas?

Are you also copying over the ROM-KEY?

Yes, I've given up for the moment but would like to get E-UAE running on my A1-XE.

Yes, I've given up ... to get E-UAE running on my A1-XE.
Tsk, tsk that's a shame! The hard problems about installing AIAB or AmiKit, or even AmigaSYS4 in the A1 is all the script orientation is for a PC not an Amiga. So, you really have to think "UnPC"; i.e, killing off all fixes and patches for PC concerning Amiga OS run-time. Since I never touched Amiga Forever, I would suspect the same PC logic exits: Amiga for the PC 'not' for the AmigaOne which it's self isn't Classical Amiga. It's an interesting 'pickling' problem for Amiga pickles!
FWIW:
If you're interested, I wrote this EyeTech/CU system installer some time back (july 2008):
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/AmigaOS4/message/32221
Do you have your two AmigaOne CDs? I never got any feedback if this helps or hinders A1 users?
