Update1 FE issues with A4000D and GRex
Posted: Mon Jan 16, 2017 10:34 pm
Hi,
I have severe issues with the Update 1 of the Final Edition on my A4000D (same system as this one here: http://forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz ... =15&t=3469) with 8MB Permedia 2 GFX card.
After manually downloading the update (Amiupdate always failed to download this file correctly due to many many many stalls and restarts during download) and installing it, the system no longer boots. After the kernel loads, I get a red screen.
I tried different configurations:
1) started without GREX kernel option, system loads but GFX is somewhat disturbed
Modified kicklayout
2a) with PCI GFX & Voodoo3 and without Permedia2 entries: red screen
2b) without PCI GFX, Voodoo3 and P2 entries: pink screen, after reset red screen
2b) only with PCI GFX entry: pink screen
3a) removed Permedia 2 card from system: red screen
3b) exchanged Permedia2 card for Voodoo3 card: red screen
Changed kernel back to kernel from OS4.1FE Install CD: system boots up correctly, even showing Update 1, Permedia 2 in title bar.
Maybe this is related to the Mediator issue, as Rotzloeffel already pointed out?
How can I help? Do you need some debug output? If so, what setup is needed?
Regards,
Alexander
