AROS ABIv0 20190416 Development

Thanks. Now I know where to search for regression.

One more request: boot the 2018 ISO you used before, go to HDToolBox and click-into 'Partiion 0' and 'Partiion 1'. This should show the internal partitions. Please make screen shots of all 3 and share them.

Tried it out on my Acer Aspire v3-551 (ca.2013) laptop, got it working quite nicely after some fiddling. Resetting is the only thing that doesn't work properly, leaves a black screen and need poweroff.

Here's some capture pics&logs: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/i3sizg79hybqno2/AACUqMAF-uZo_mRZcMCECQ4Wa?dl=0

Thanks deadwood for your work.

ok

Ok, for a quick test take L/fat-handler from the -D4 ISO and copy it over to your 2019 installation. Let me know if this made the FAT partition visible again.

No difference

Was the Big_Fat partition created from AROS using HDToolBox or from other system?

Looking at the INFO output from 2018 LiveCD it is recognized as FAT12 which should not support the sizes of 120GB :/

The partition was not created with HDToolBox, it was probably an old Microsoft partition enlarged with GParted over the years.

I'm attaching an experimental partition image in FAT32 (still unrecognized).

Btw, if you get a chance to look, there is a Grub start that doesn't work on my machine, "AROS (high colour VESA graphics)"

@cavemann

Try this ISO, it should have fat-handler fixed.

@Deadwood

Thank you very much for all your work on this.
From my perspective the timing was impeccable too.
For the last 3 months or so I've been collecting dozens of different gpus, soundcards, nics, and about a dozen different platforms that AROS works on (already tested very, very briefly with latest icaros just to make sure it's working properly), with the goal to start a Youtube channel showcasing the performance and compatibility of different hardware platforms and gpus, ram speeds/timings, and so on and so forth. A parallel to many pc hardware based channels in existence, but with the focus on AROS (and to a lesser extent other "Amiga" on x86 hardware options, but that's a sidebar).
 
Im very close to having a variation of all the hardware supported by x86 AROS now, and intended to start making videos this weekend, so having an updated, stable core with which to work from is very handy.

Thanks again

@korban

Glad to hear that! Looking forward to watching your videos.
