`17.Dec.2015` amigafuture.de (Webseite)	PCI-Busboards: Mediator PCI 1200 TX Black and Mediator PCI 4000 Di Black In a press release Elbox has announced that two new versions of the Mediator 1200 TX and Mediator 4000 Di will be available from December 21st on. The solder mask of both editions is black, therefore the producer calls it the "Black Edition". The version 1200 TX has six PCI-slots and a red LED which indicates when PCI cards cannot be removed or inserted. The Mediator 4000 Di is meant for A4000 computers in the desktop case, has four PCI 2.2 slots (which also support 3.3-Volt boards) and four Zorro II/III-slots ("one of them used by the Mediator 4000 Core Logic card").

`15.Dec.2015` M. C. Battilana (e-mail)	Amiga Forever: Version 2016.0.22.0 (2nd Update) Since today, an update to version 2016.0.22.0 of the emulation package Amiga Forever is available. As usual, existing installations can be updated using the Software Director. New, besides other enhancements, is an easier installation process for AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition, since it is possible now to directly boot from CD, so that the Bootdisk ADF is no longer needed. Accordingly, Cloanto's installation guide at the title link has been updated as well. The problem mentioned in our previous news-item - i.e. that on some systems a hard reset or restarting the whole emulation leads to a Guru Meditation when booting from the harddisk image file - persists, though. On the other hand in our tests we could now narrow down the cause to be the Smart File System. Thus, taken together, we recommend the following installation procedure for AmigaOS 4: In Amiga Forever, under "Systems", choose the configuration "Amiga 4000 PPC" by clicking with the right mouse button and "Create Copy" of the configuration file. Now choose "Edit" the same way for the copied configuration file. In the Media tab you can "Add" the ISO file of your AmigaOS 4 Final Edition Classic CD to the "Disks". While doing so, for performance reasons you may want to set the cycle button to "external", since embedding would result in an incorporation of the CD into your RP9 configuration file. For the same reason the preconfigured harddisk file (HDF) can be changed to "external" as well by editing it. In the configuration tab, for the network card specify an RTL 8029 device. Now you can start the emulation by double-clicking the configuration file. Shortly after, the installation menu of AmigaOS 4.1 will appear. At first you can set your local keyboard language and time zone. Afterwards you can start the actual installation of AmigaOS 4. Once you get the chance there to format your HDF, do so by entering a name for the drive and choosing "Quickformat". Continuing the installation process, you can keep the preset options except for adjusting the graphics card ("Picasso IV") and your monitor settings. Before closing the installation window by clicking "finish", you have to eject the ISO file using the corresponding icon below the window. Afterwards, the emulated PowerPC Amiga will be reset automatically (if not, you can do so yourself by pressing the key combination Ctrl-Win-Win) and boot from the HDF. Once booting from harddisk has been finished, you can install some optional programs from CD. After exiting the emulation, you should edit your configuration file again to remove the ISO file from the Media tab. Update: (21:02, 15.12.15, snx) Cloanto meanwhile has adjusted the installation guide as well with regard to the file system - thus we recommend our readers to follow the more detailed instructions at the title link. 2nd Update: (19:46, 17.12.15, snx) The alleged SFS problem turned out to be a user error meanwhile.
