The boot image of 3.11 has a size about 2.3 MB. The boot image of 3.12 has only 1.5 MB.
Is it the wrong image on the CD???
Can someone help me?
The reason the Pegasos 1, Pegasos 2 and Efika boot images are smaller in MorphOS 3.12 is that they're using a more efficient compression method than previously. It's the right boot image :)
There have indeed been some reports of failure to boot on Pegasos 1, but we haven't pinpointed the problem yet. As we have limited access to Pegasos 1 machines on the MorphOS team these days, we'll have to rely on user reports to try to figure out what's causing the boot failure.
What this means is that the more information you can supply about your system, the easier it will be for us to figure out what the cause is. What motherboard revision (original/April/April 2), what firmware version, how much memory have you got installed, which add-on boards have you got installed, what happens when you try to boot, when does it fail/stop and anything else you can think of would be helpful for us to know. If you have the required hardware/setup to capture serial logs, then that would be really helpful too.
I rarely log in to MorphZone which means that I often miss private messages sent on here. If you wish to contact me, please email me at [username]@asgaard.morphos-team.net, where [username] is my username here on MorphZone.
