Hi

Has anyone had this problem with Classicwb ?:
I installed the os without problems, but for some reason when I'm installing some programs, I get an error message prompting me to "insert the disk you booted from" and the installerscrips quits when I click proceed. Does anyone know what this means??

I've only had this with 3.1 versions of classic, like advsp or full, not with 3.9

@Superfrog

Seems the programs you're trying to install refers to paths that are not correctly set into S:/startup-sequence Maybe LIBS: or DEVS:

Try this: compare the startup-sequence you have on the WB Floppy #1 and the one you have on your hard drive boot partition. You might find something useful.

@Superfrog

I agree, this is a classic Workbench error. I just didn't think it was funny at the time.

Usually you get this when booting off floppy so this is a funny one. What is the source of the progrmas you are installing? Not the same thing here, but ones installling off floppy won't work unless the source volume is in the drive, or mounted as some volume.

Is your system SYS: assign intacct?

The source of programs are adfs mounted in Winuae.
