@alfkill Is QT enough mature for smby to port LibreOffice? Do you think it would be hard to port it? I really would like to donate money for such bounty. I hope you get your machine repaired so you could get back in business again
@Joeled I think that LibreOffice has a lot of other dependancies than just Qt, and anyway it is better to try porting smaller Qt apps before tackling larger Qt apps.
I have LibreOffice right here in Ubuntu, and it is a nice tool for sure. Actually I didn't know, that it is built with Qt?? When I get my Sam back, I will take a look and try to determine how much work would be involved. Thanks for the pointer!

It was sent yesterday from Italy, so a few days more, I will be back on track.
In the meantime, I have been doing some Qt development on my Ubuntu laptop. Uh and yes, today I installed OS4.1 Classic on my good old faithful A1200 with my newly upgraded 330MHz-603/60MHz-060 BPPC card... Thanks to stachu100 for doing the upgrade!!
Good new: Got my sam back today. Bad news: My HD has gone awry, and my system partition is no longer recognized... What to do..???
EDIT: Booting from the OS4.1.1 CD works, and I can see, that my Work partition is still readable. Very weird, I have only taken the HD and put it directly in the closet before shipping the system...
EDIT EDIT: In Media Toolbox I can see, that the filesystem for DH0 and DH1 is DOS/07. Could it be that my system partition is SFS and therefore is not recognized? If so, would it be safe to try and switch it in media toolbox without loosing the (maybe) data, that might still be there??
@alfkil I just remember how back in the past few good projects dead, when author's hdds on their old a1200 die, and they scream and cry while bet by hammers their amigas :)
About unrecognized system: partition - its non visibly even if you boot from CD ? Or it visibly, just can't boot ?

It is not recognized, eg. the icon says "DH1: Uninitialized" with a stopping hand on it.
Just a thought: Does "DiskSalv" exist for OS4.1??
No, but DiskSalv is probably not what you want anyway. It wouldn't know about the current FFS reimplementation and DOS\7 etc.
But maybe you could try firing up Utilities/PartitionWizard (from the CD) and see if it can make any sense of your DH1:.

I'm only asking because the one thing i DIDN't back up was my system partition... :-/
Ahem ... I'm assuming this is because you decided that you had very little other than the virgin install on it? If so, you should probably just reformat, reinstall and be done with it.
