@Jeff1138

Please limit your RAM to 512 MB and check.

@Deadwood

When trying to install this occurs if using more than 2GB:

With 2GB or less the installation works.

While it's possible to partition a drive image with more than 2GB you can't format partitions. There's no output about the error, the system just locks up.
Im using VirtualBox by the way.

@korban

By 2GB, you mean 2GB RAM or 2GB disk image?

@Deadwood.

Ah, sorry, I can see how that was unclear, especially with me mentioning partitions and whatnot in the same sentence as 2GB  :)
I was talking about RAM though.

Indeed, crossing 2GB RAM boundary makes some 64-bit bugs starting to manifest. There are not many left and eventually they are going to be ironed out.

I tried a few more configs under a VM and got it to run.
Using what I learned there I tried it natively and it appears the problem is when using more than 16 physical cpu cores. Disabling all but 16 cores it works, and boots into AROS, but even with just 17, either native or VM and I cant even reach grub. Volume of RAM doesnt appear to be an issue.
Ive barely tested beyond that, but things seem ok from a rudimentary playing around.

Ram isn't an issue at least up to 256GB as far as I know.  :-X

deadwood i tried all options on grub but it wont boot my system is a xeon hp z400 workstation

Set your bios to legacy mode and grub should appear(I've had issues with EFI bios in the past).

Hi,

Setting to 512mb AROSInstall now runs (tested newest iso and that runs AROSInstall) but have the same issue of now freezing while creating and formatting partitions

The limit now appears to be 3GB.
I tried with 32GB to begin with, but crashes still happened when trying to format and/or use InstallAROS.
After that I tried with 4GB, which had the same result.
3GB however worked without issue whereas it didnt before the new ISO.

That's unexpected :/

Anyhow I confirm that with ~4GB RAM formatting now crashes VM. Well, back to debugging.
