Heloo to all Amigans!

My question is about how to boot succesfully OS 4.0 Final.
Now I have my copy since yesterday and after installing two times changing the boot priorities I cannot boot it.

I want to install with OS 4.0 update#4 on different partitions maybe or in teh same.

How can I mange to boot OS 4.0 Final together with the update.

Essentially I want to boot the Final version and make a backup of the update to later use it on the same HD.

Help is really appreciated.

No details, no help. What did you do exactly and what
exactly does not work? Can you boot without S-S?

Boot without S-S, then type "CD" (without quotes) and
press Return. You will get the info about the current
directory. When this is not the bootable partition
where you installed the OS4Final Workbench files,
you tried to mix kickstart and WB versions which dont
match, adjusting the boot priorities with Media Toolbox
should fix it.

When its the right directory, type "Set Echo ON" (without
quotes), press Return, type "Execute S/Startup-Sequence"
(without quotes), press Return, watch what happens and
report where it hangs. You can also use "Set Interactive ON"
as first command when you want to be asked for confirmation
of each command before it is executed, then you can even
skip commands when you know in advance they wont work.

That is really useful information. I think I will copy it for future reference. I have previously stated that many of us old time Amigans didn't even scratch the surface of what our little old classic machines could do and we didn't learn little work arounds such as this (even though this may be OS4 specific). Thanks.
