Re: Trouble with installing on very well supported hardware
@amigasystem So I gave AROS One 2.4 another try. I made sure the USB drive was clear of any partitions and boot record. Clean slate! I was able to install it from the ISO to the USB. I still can't use the VHD image you created. I then installed it on my Dell Latitude D520 without errors. And here is where the experience started to take a down turn. I started my favorite game Open Tyrian 2.1 from Extras Games. It starts, I go through the menu and right before starting to play, it crashes with a Stack error (see attached). NOTE: the same game in a plain AROS install from deadwood files does not crash. I can play for hours and no issues. Now, to get it working fine on AROS ONE, I had to set the stack to 10000000. This is what I was talking about in my previous post. Applications crash for no apparent reason. The stack for some reason may not be big enough on your distribution.

Re: Trouble with installing on very well supported hardware
miker sorry, unintentionally I misspelled, then old age and copy-paste did the rest. The current version is 2.4, 2.5 is under construction ! I correct the post

Re: Trouble with installing on very well supported hardware
What is the current version of AROS One x86? Is it 2.4 or 2.5 ?

Re: Trouble with installing on very well supported hardware
@amigamia Very strange I work on AROS One for hours without having Guru, users who use it can confirm it, probably your AROS One has something corrupted, try it the ISO of AROS One on a VM and see if you have the same problems. At the moment nu user has reported these problems and Guru to me Perchance you are running software from the old core ? These videos demonstrate that James runs many Applications in many minutes on AROS One 2.4 without having serious problems: [b]AROS One 2.4 [/b]: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4a5SOcEbaRA][b]Tutorial Video[/b][/url] (52 Minutes) [b]AROS One 2.4 [/b]: [url=https://youtu.be/OBXsuw8GdKgI][b]Tutorial Video[/b][/url] (41 Minutes) [b]AROS One 2.4 [/b]: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpqVWwd0D7U][b]Tutorial Video[/b][/url] [b]AROS One 2.4 [/b]: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLSYvVShQmE][b]Tutorial Video[/b][/url]

Re: Trouble with installing on very well supported hardware
[quote name=AMIGASYSTEM post=4565]@AMIGASYSTEM - But to create the USB image did you use my ISO DVD ? If for some did not copy the Development with its content, copy manually all the Development data included in the ISO-DVD, in the Development folder of your HD All strange what happens, some users have installed my USB Image and used the GCC Nion give up, as a last try do this: Try a Different Network and a different PC to download and burn the USB Image ![/quote] That's the thing, I honestly do not think it's the download getting corrupted. I download files of any format without any problems. I have downloaded your AROS One USB from 3 different computers and it's showing the same problem when I install it. To create a new USB drive, I used your ISO DVD yes! It did create it and I DID select to install the development files. I am going to try one more time but if I manage to install it, the problems do not stop there. I have been experiencing other random issues once AROS One is installed. Lock ups, GURU errors, just at random times as I use applications. I can't go longer that 10-15 minutes without a crash where I have to reboot to get it back working. Now, I know AROS does not have memory protection and if an app crashes, it takes down the entire OS with it but when it's happening so often, it is quite distracting and annoying. I installed the base AROS version from deadwood's axrt.org and it has been a MUCH more pleasant experience. I used it last night for 2 hours and only crashed once from a known problem when exiting OpenTyrian 2.1 game. It's painful to introduce all sorts of apps, tools, to be able to bring a base AROS version to a more usable experience but at least I am not getting interrupted by a random crash while I am playing a tune or editing a file. Sorry AmigsSystem, no offense. I love what you do and continue to do for AROS. I still think AROS One is a delight, but the excitement is short lived for my point of view. Perhaps, it has just become a but over-bloated with apps that are, for lack of better terms, poorly coded or bugs never cleaned up, which continue to be a showstopper for the whole OS.

There are too many strange problems, crashes, and lock ups with this AROS One. I know it works perfectly on your VirtualBox but the experience is way different on a physical hardware it seems. For the time being I am reverting to a basic setup using deadwood's ISO file without all the other bloat. We'll see if that works better.

Re: Trouble with installing on very well supported hardware
Question @Amigasystem: Is the GCC not included in the development? I don't see it. I even tried to run my install again from the USB drive and made sure I selected tthe option to install Development. gcc -v returns : gcc: object not found

Re: Trouble with installing on very well supported hardware
After much tribulations, I was able to install AROS One 2.4 by using the ISO and the method described above at AROS news. The VHD just refused to boot, despite the many times I re-downloaded it. Writing this reply from my Dell Latitude D520 with working accelerated Intel GMA graphics, working AHI, and working WiFi via an atheros 5000 chip. This is a really nice laptop for AROS.

Re: Trouble with installing on very well supported hardware
In some cases it could also be a fragmented hardisk problem, it happens that sudden shutdowns of the (Fixed) PC corrupt the filesystem causing strange errors on the files. A good method to keep the filesystem efficient at all times is to perform a SkanDisk on all volumes after the PC shuts down acause of power failure. This procedure will prevent some corrupted files from being deleted.

Re: Trouble with installing on very well supported hardware
[quote name=amigamia post=4556]@amigamia I have been trying to install AROS One 2.4 via ISO using the same method as above but 3 hours later I am still trying. It's one error or another. Got tired of tracking them. One time was the USB and another AROS One just becomes unresponsive while in VirtualBox, a crash here and a crash there. [/quote] That sounds pretty similar to what I experienced with AROS One 2.3 ISO in VirtualBox. Random crashes during installation process. I asked another person to re-test and he didn't have these problems. I think this shows there is something wrong with download process - seems that sometimes archives come damaged even though they uncompress (or they become damaged after uncompressing). It does not seem too frequent - else there would be more people reporting these problems.

Re: Trouble with installing on very well supported hardware
Well, I have no issues with AROS-pc-i386-boot-iso version 20220318-1 downloaded from https://axrt.org/downloads-aros and using this method: https://arosnews.github.io/how-to-prepare-usb-flash-drive-aros/ I have been trying to install AROS One 2.4 via ISO using the same method as above but 3 hours later I am still trying. It's one error or another. Got tired of tracking them. One time was the USB and another AROS One just becomes unresponsive while in VirtualBox, a crash here and a crash there. I think I may have finally managed to make a new USB with AROS One 2.4 using the method in question and NOT the VHD/Rufus process. We shall see!

Re: Trouble with installing on very well supported hardware
[quote name=deadwood post=4551]@deadwood - @amigamia Two quick questions: 1) Did previous versions work correctly?[/quote] Yes, I currently have AROS One 2.2 installed. I had no issues booting with that version. With that version, I just have to add "noacpi" in the grub boot string otherwise it goes into a back screen and never boots. [quote]2) Did you try clean system 20220318 release installed to USB via VirtualBox InstallAROS process?[/quote] I haven't yet. That was my next try in the coming days as time permits. Will let you know.

[quote name=AMIGASYSTEM post=4549]@AMIGASYSTEM - What version did you use of Rufus ? , I don't remember from whom, it was reported to me that the recent version of Rufus doesn't work well with AROS USB images[/quote] That was me in another thread. The problematic version was Rufus 4. I am using 3.20.1929 which has always worked. The problem with Rufus 4 was during the burning of the VHD image. I don't have that same problem. It burns the VHD image just fine. I guess I could try 4 this time but the error is not clear to me.

Re: Trouble with installing on very well supported hardware
Running into a strange issue with a known fully supported laptop (Dell Latitude D520) and AROS One 2.4 which was downloaded as USB image. Rufus was used to burn the VHD file. Booting regularly with no changes just hangs to a black screen. Adding the noacpi switch to the grub boot lines, does start the boot process but the attached error shows shortly after.

Re: Monitor resolutions and refresh rate
[quote name=AMIGASYSTEM post=4527]@AMIGASYSTEM - Hi BorniPI, I didn't quite understand the problems with the update frequencies created by AROSone, What Build did you download, can you provide the link ?, if you downloaded the new TynyAROS, it is the deadwood reference Buid, practically the same Core is included on AROS One, consequently there should be no compatibility differences. Also from the AROS One Gub, via BootMenu you can access the "Earl Startup Control" where as on Amiga you will have available a Shel or Dopus4 and then edit the grub.cfg very easily. [youtube]rGWiR6EL-qw[/youtube][/quote] Nope, that was an one way, after i pressed enter in "Early Startup Control", i had the message from my LCD screen that frequency isn't supported. But thank you for the tip.
