Is the ‘pc-x86_64-20260128-014344’ build only for testing purposes, or can I update AROS One?

As any automated build from build.axrt.org/download/ its only for testing.

Official U3 update should be available for testing in a few days.

OK, thank you. I can confirm that ‘vmwaresvga.hidd.46.0.x86_64-aros’ has fixed the black background issue when exiting RNOSlide running via EmuV0.

However, the VMware driver version of the test ISO ‘pc-x86_64-20260128-014344’ still displays a black screen.

Ok, good. That was practically the last thing I wanted to fix before starting to prepare the update.

I've found an iissue but I'm not sure if it's program or datatype related. When saving in both ZunePaint and ZuneView an ILBM image, the resulting file is corrupted and cannot be viewed or opened as ab image, even in the programs that saved them. As mentioned, I'm not sure if this is to do with the programs or if they save using the ILBM datatype.

Cheers
Nigel.

Tomorrow I will test all the Hollywood apps to check that there are no more graphics issues. Some are being updated with the new Hollywood 11 and I am checking whether they still work.

Quick question - does 64 bit increase the 120GB per partition and/or the 2GB per file maximum?

Cheers,
Nigel.

Unfortunatelly not. 2GB limit is on the dos.library API level - we need a new 64-bit API (AFAIK AmigaOS4 and MorphOS have such APIs). 120GB limit - I'm not sure. It might be SFS limit, because device drivers (ata/sata) should already support higher sizes I think.

Yes, I believe the 120 GB limit (actually 127?) is an SFS limitation.

I prepared U3 update package:

https://axrt.org/development/tmp/AROS-20250418-1-U3-any-x86_64-update.zip

If no issues are found with it, it will be released next week. There will also be a separate SDK update package, but that probably Monday.

U3 contains U2 and U1 so it can be applied directly on the 20250418-1 release.

Please note: the update contains updated grub.cfg. If you are using custom grub configuration, the update will overwrite it.
