I finally got it working - Dual Boot AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition and MorphOS 3.8 now running on my Sam 460CR!

Today Acube Systems released a firmware upgrade for the Sam 460ex and Sam 460cr systems and I quickly rushed to install it on my Sam 460CR. It is nice to get a new firmware so soon after buying the Sam system.

After 9 months of development version 3.8 of MorphOS was finally released on Friday the 15th. Just by looking at the release notes you will see an impressive list of news, bugfixes and improvements. But since I’m a betatester I have been enjoying these improvements for quite some time now, so for me this is more a conclusion rather than something new and exciting.

This week saw the release of MorphOS 3.8, so I quickly fired up the Powerbook G4 to upgrade to the latest version! I also could try out the new support in MorphOS 3.8 for the Sam 460Cr I recently bought - great stuff!

One of the most common problem with the Amiga 4000 is for sure Battery leakage.

This post will be about repairing such stuff and will be updated.

Hi there,

The ingenuity of the Amiga userbase is amazing! Here are a few new hardware projects I’ve spotted online recently.

I have been busy for the past few weeks working on creating a web presence for the Adelaide Amiga User Group, which meets regularly in Adelaide, South Australia.

Today I wanted to take a look at a sneak peak of the forthcoming game from Cherry Darling called Wings Battlefield. I tested this game on AmigaOS 4.1 final edition on my new Sam 460CR system, and also on MorphOS 3.7 on my Powerbook G4 laptop.

Daniel asked me to show how the game looks like with more mountains, so I added that to my latest blog post:
