    How much did you pay for the A1200 with PPC?

    I believe the problem might be that the OS3.9 filesystem is not the same as the one in MorphOS. MOS is generally compatible with OS3.1.

    So FFS from OS3.1 or some SFS.. but I suspect there is some incompatible version of SFS, too.

    Most people here don't have Amiga systems with MOS on, but I'm sure sooner or later someone will come along and help you. :)

    Hi,

    as far, as I know, you have to format the MorphOS partition using SFS to install MorphOS on a classic Amiga.
    I have an A3000T with CSPPC 200MHz and CVPPC and MorphOS works like a charm.

    Hi

    I had s similar problem when i tried to get morphos to boot on my A4000 with CSPPC.

    You can see what i did here:

    https://morph.zone/modules/newbb_plus/viewtopic.php?topic_id=4779&forum=42

    The resetlevel for Blizzard is 1. And I copied my kickstart to devs.

    After some messing around I got it to work.

    Maby this can help!

    Hi,
    which is the startup error ?
    I think you didn't well copied all the files cleanly, nor you won't have these problem. MOSPuP is fully functionnal directly from the CD.
    Which filesystem did you use ?
    Keep the Faith !

    Maybe one day a G4 AmigaONE when they will be debugged and without April...
