I know for certain that the upgrade scheme worked flawlessly in many (all except one?) countries, involving many dealers and many users. I think it's a shame that it didn't work everywhere; that some dealers and some users were less honest and tried to profit from Genesi's good faith in them. I am quite tired to see these threads of people crying "give me, give me, give me" in what seems like an endless stream of cries, without listening to the explanations and responses that actually are given. My recommendation to Genesi for the future is to either stop dealing with said dealers/users and/or never offer any upgrade schemes at all in the future.

Hi, Doraemon's upgrade package will be shipped today and check your email Doraemon...

That is the LAST one!

Today I recived my peg 2 :)

But now the problems:

when I make a boot /pci/ide/cdrom boot.img I only get:

ISO-9660 filesystem: System-ID: "MORPHOS" Volume-ID: "MorpODBoot"
Root dir: " " flags=0x2 extent=0x1C size=0xF12
zlib: input appears to be corrupt or not gzipped
zlib: input appears to be corrupt or not gzipped
error: bootimage format is of an unknow format.

Any idea??????

A lot of thx

Well, I found my problem.
Its my CD-R unit.
Now I tryed a really old 2x cdrom and it booted perfect into morphos :)

I copyed the boot.img for a peg2 to my bi0: partition and now it runs perfectly :))

A lot of thx genesi, im a happy peg2 user!

My plextor CDRW runs perfectly

Your CDROM/CDRW drive is LG?

I tested 1 DVD Lg, 1 cd-rw lg, one cdrw benq and one really old 2x acer cd-r
In morphos all runs fine, but in openfirmware only the 2x cd-r.

Well, no problem, I have my morphos up and runnig :)

LG is crap in CD/DVD readers and rewritters, one LG reads slower than a plextor, is slower starting to read it, can't read some disk with problems and one plextor can... So yes, it can run, but is a very bad drive on all platforms...

Yes, I know it, I have in my amiga a Plextor scsci and a Yamaha scsi.

But when I bouth the things for my peg I have money=0 :(

Funny. I have never had any problems with LG drives. Now I have three of them, my next choice will probably be LG aswell.

When Plextor can match LG's price/performance ratio I might consider it.
