BetterWB && CSMK3
« on: March 16, 2018, 12:40:32 AM »
Did anyone try to run BetterWB on CS MK3 ? I cannot make it run. It runs on Apollo 4060 with onboard ide/scsi(A4000/3000) with onboard 030, but it doesn't run on CS MK3. Just stalls. I install WB3.1 with 060 libs everything is ok, after installing BetterWB, stops working.
Please share your experience.

Thanks!

Hi Marmes,
                Could you be a little more detailed about what you did and what was the outcome?
                This will help me to reproduce the issue, and even if possible, build a fix or create a workaround if it is required.

Thanks Gulliver.
1st I partition/format the Drive/SDcard/CFCard, with PFS3, whatever.
2- Install WB3.1 1gb partition.
3- 060 libs
Everything is ok here.
4th install BetterWB , install goes OK, no errors, nothing.
After install, when I reboot, the computer gives the drive click then stalls.
I noticed that the RTC stops, because if I stand 3 minutes waiting for the system boot, after opening the system with a boot disk I notice that time is delayed.
I used  CS MK3 SCSI with a CF card with acard scsi to ide. I also tried a normal scsi HDD, with the same result. Onboard scsi/ide same result.
I'm also using an Amiga 3000D
OS3.9 works perfectly with the same configuration.

Thanks for the info.
I will try to reproduce it.

Anyway, your RTC stopping is a weird issue.

Do you choose to install env-handler?

Boot without startup-sequence by going to the early startup menu (to enter this menu hold both mouse keys whilst booting).

when you get to the cli type "setpatch" (without quotes)
then type "loadwb" (without quotes)
then type "endcli" (without quotes)

Do you have a functional workbench?

So then the problem is most likely in the startup-sequence.

You should try isolate the issue by adding a ";" in front of suspicious lines of the startup-sequence so that they get ignored.

Use either "ed" or better use "redit" to edit the startup-sequence.

And before that just make sure you dont install env-handler.

It has been reported as a somewhat conflictive program on some systems.

We want to avoid conflicts.

I would first target foreign 3.1 programs that get started from the startup-sequence.

After editing then reboot and see if you properly get to workbench in a normal way.

If not repeat the process untill you find the guilty program

It is hiding in there, making our life difficult ;)

Hmm... weird issue.

PeterK icon.library works like a charm.

I will report this issue to him so that he might find a workaround or fix.
