Hi, I did a fresh install of 3.0.19 on my i386 box today. I used the standard root.bin and rescue.bin and basedebs.tar from auric. There were only two problems with the installation, first I had to convert basedebs.tar to basedebs.tgz (this is fixed with 3.0.20?). Second, as this box is my route

Hi, we got another AMD64 machine at work, nearly identical to the one I installed in late august, only difference, this one has an ASUS K8N-E Deluxe mainboard.

Hi folks, sorry to interrupt with a simple thing and not adding to the flamewars. I want to build another set of boot-floppies for m68k, which fix some problems I introduced (wrong amiga kernel), improves the quickinstall for mac, changes the directory layout for mac, so that we can use symlinks

missing IDE devices for m68k?

Hi, an Amiga user has some wierd problem with the boot-floppies, I hope[1] this is due to missing IDE devices. I checked base2_2.tgz, there are no hdc and hdd devices, but there are hde, hdf, hdg, hdh. Do these two have to be added in the m68k section in basedisks.sh? In "generic" only hde-hdh a
