I'm not sure why the screenshots keep coming up the wrong way round however if you click on it a new window will come up with it the right way round!!!!

henrikstengaard commented 4 years ago

Something is when wrong with your attached screenshot. I can't open it and get a broken image icon in your comment. Can you post it again?

Direction of the image is fine, i can manage to rotate it ;-)

spikemorrissey commented 4 years ago

The image is showing up when I load Github in Chrome. I have uploaded the picture again. Thank you for your help with this!

henrikstengaard commented 4 years ago

Thanks the image works now, might have been a glitch at github.

The second command should not end with a quote ("). I just used those to indicate the command.

Please try again just with: find /media/hstwb-self-install/amigaos -type f -exec md5sum '{}' ;

The files looks like the right ones, but I need to be sure by looking at md5 checksums

I have given the scripts a lot of polish and testing this weekend with more features added and I just have to do a final test/reinstall on Amibian 1.5 before I officially release it. I expect to do that tomorrow evening

spikemorrissey commented 4 years ago

I think I will wait for the grand release tomorrow then Henrik - thank you so much for all your work on this. I am very much looking forward to it!

henrikstengaard commented 4 years ago

I have merged and released Amibian 1.5 support in master branch, so please retry installation of HstWB Installer for Amibian.

If you have been testing with amibian-15 branch retry by switching back to master branch and reinstall with following commands:

cd ~/hstwb-installer.
git checkout master.
git pull.
./launcher/amibian/uninstall.sh.
./launcher/amibian/install.sh.

I have added a lot of details about installation and use at Wiki page https://github.com/henrikstengaard/hstwb-installer/wiki/HstWB-Installer-for-Amibian.

So please give it a try again and note that Amiberry v3.1.2 or newer is required as it solves JIT issues.

Thank you so much for all your work on this Henrik however although the installer is working and I have a 256 color screenmode the actual screen looks terrible - please can you advise?!

henrikstengaard commented 4 years ago

Great, you got it installed and running. The lack of colors is more a Amiga OS or ClassicWB OS39 issue than it's related to HstWB Installer. It seems like you have installed ClassicWB OS39 from the screenshot.

During installation of ClassicWB OS39 you will be presented with an option to select between icon colors: Default 16, Optimized 16 or Higher Colours. If you didn't select higher colours, then the icons and background image will appear ugly as ClassicWB has configure it to use low amount of colors and low colored background image. I'm not sure if this can be easily reverted, once it's already installed. As a start you could try changing background image from Workbench, Prefs and WBPattern to one with more than 16 colors, but that won't fix the icons.

spikemorrissey commented 4 years ago

Thanks for the reply. The strange thing is, I did install higher colours and I still ended up with the ugly icons and background image. Do you think this is anything to do with Amibian on the Raspberry Pi using the Amiberry emulator as opposed to UAE?

spikemorrissey commented 4 years ago

Am I supposed to install Picasso 96? I must admit this has me stumped. Please could you advise?! I definitely did the installation with higher colours so why does it look so awful?!

spikemorrissey commented 4 years ago

I tried it again using the retro theme higher colors and os 3.9. The same thing happened again - an awful looking screen - do you think its anything to do with the installer mentioning that the display mode is UAE and Amibian uses Amiberry instead? - screenshots attached.

spikemorrissey commented 4 years ago

I fixed it! I went to screen mode in wbprefs and selected pal high res laced, I then went into amiberry setup and selected line double mode and then rebooted and it fixed everything! - thank you for all your help with this Henrik!
