I entered the exact debug command for X1000 that's listed in the http://wiki.amigaos.net/wiki/Advanced_S ... ging_Guide WIKI which is:

setenv -p os4_commandline="serial munge debuglevel=4"

When I enter a printenv command I see this:

os4_commandline==

and the original setting is still shown as this:

os4commandline=DEBUGLEVEL=5 SERIAL

How do I get rid of the bad variable and set the correct variable?

Faulty...

setenv -p os4_commandline="serial munge debuglevel=4"

you gotta lose the first "="

This one's correct:

setenv -p os4_commandline "serial munge debuglevel=4"

...and to delete the other faulty var, just save a NULL/NADA/ZILCH/NOTHING in it:

setenv -p os4commandline

Thanks for the help. Hopefully someone will fix the WIKI.

This setting:

os4commandline=DEBUGLEVEL=5 SERIAL

has been there since the day I received my X1000 from AmigaKit. I wonder how many other X1000 users have the wrong CFE OS4 commandline setting on their systems. The difference is easy to overlook since an underscore ( _ ) is the only difference. Maybe everyone should try entering "nvgetvar" in a shell to see if their settings are correct.

While i think the wiki is a great place to roam through and find random information, i was never able to *really* find anything i was looking for.
Whenever i used that dreaded "search" field it throwed things at me i didn't want to know.
I want a real "Contents" page, sorted by Alphabet, just like in the back of a DIY book.

(Especially when trying to script in AREXX the wiki is hell...i'm still using my dying printed AmigaOS 3.1 AREXX manual to do that)

The information about how to tweak my X1000 i took out of my X1000 "manual" (a few printed pages in a loose-leaf binder) i got with the machine (or, iirc, a few weeks after, after i bugged AmigaKit to send me one)

It's called an 'index' and I'd like to see the WIKI indexed too but I can't think of any simple way it could be done.

How about All pages

That's more of an alphabetized table of contents but it's better than nothing.
