Preparing a new HD for installing 0S4.1 FE

Post by JosDuchIt »

Guidance on this? URL?

When on mediatoolbox you hit install, then on rdb editing install again you are asked to select AmigaOne boot code
= SLB—v2 ?

I would also like to know the answer to that for X5000. Some systems have SLB, X1000 has amigaboot.of and I don't see any boot file for X5000.

In that case, what do you enter for AmigaOne boot code in the Edit RDB window of MTB??

The X5000 boot drive does not need any "A1 booter "so don't install anything.

As Spectre660 said, the SLB was only used on the SEs, XEs, µA1, Sam 440s and 460s. No other platform used it and it's not required in any modern machine.

With your OS4 CD, you have an "Installation guide" that explains this, under "Harddisk setup with Media Toolbox". It should explains it for all machines with Uboot.
For machines based on Open Firmware, you may find enough information here: http://www.amedia-computer.com/amiga/do ... nglish.pdf
