@gbraad:

  1. why the double AROS-20220627-mingw32-x86_64-system ?
  2. AROS needs to be started from the sys directory, then invoked with boot\mingw32\AROSBootstrap.exe

With regards to 2: I don't know Windows nor do I know how you have setup your directories because of 1. The thing I do know is that you can make a (desktop) link for it as well, invoking the bootstrap executable from within the correct directory (in case if that makes life easier for you).

If you start the bootstrap from the incorrect location when using the i386 hosted version it will "crash" the same way.

gbraad commented 2 years ago

They are not the same. One is the 32bit and the other is the 64bits version. The 64bits does not work, so I tried the 32bits. It is not something I want but got forced into as it didn't work. Hence the report

If you start the bootstrap from the incorrect location ... it will "crash" the same way.

Is this documented? Can't recall seeing this

magorium commented 2 years ago

The crash itself is not documented. But how you start AROS is, see http://www.aros.org/documentation/users/installation.php#running

And wrt to the directory, you seem to have embedded the aros directory from the archive into the same directory again. Therefor it is undetermined where actually your SYS: directory is located on your drive and thus it is not possible to determine how to start AROS correctly on your setup.

It is neither documented, nor true. You can directly launch the windows hosted version by double clicking on the exe.

The issue you have opened the ticket for is known and expected currently. The build has been enabled to get it working, which has never been the case. If you would like to use the windows hosted version it is advised, for the time being at least, to use the 32bit version - however please note the windows hosted version is considerably more unstable than e.g linux hosted.
