| @xeno74 I couldn't resist giving it a try. Ended up with the many pages of colorful text messages, ending with "Started Update UTMP about Sustem Runlevel Changes."
Very much like my attempts with 15.10, except after a few seconds something was added: Quote:
The system is running in low-graphics mode Your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. You will need to configure these yourself [OK] |
Clicking OK gave me a number of choices, one of which brought up a long file of messages, many of which I photographed for preservation. A preponderance seemed to relate to Radeon this and that.
I'm starting to suspect that my X1000 has serious problems.

Could you please test zappa2009's xorg.conf files?
Download: X.org.conf.zip
Please copy one of the xorg.conf files to /etc/X11 after that reboot your AmigaONE X1000.
Thanks in advance. _________________ www.amigalinux.org |

Sorry xeno74, ran into the same mess as Bart, and it's the same with trying to install Deb_8.
Once it is time to reboot it can't find the hard drive by /dev/name, and too many other problems.

That's strange. There are users without any installation problems and there are users with installation problems.
It seems, there are some problems we don't know.

I tried many things, including initrd, using another Linux to put the modules in, several 4+ kernels, etc..
It is probably one of those small things that when found will cause a good forehead slap.
Back to dinking around with kernels.

| Spectre660 released a new installation initial ramdisk for installing Ubuntu 16.04 with the stable longterm kernel 4.1.18.
New: It should copy the 4.1.18 modules and Luigi's Xorg.conf during the installation.
Download: initrd-4.1.18-1.ubuntu16.04-ppc64-2.gz (I suggest to download it with a right click on the link and then with the menu point "Save target as" or something like this.)
PLEASE test it.
@Spectre660: Many many thanks for your new installation initial ramdisk. I appreciate it very much.

Luigi,
Many thanks for this hint. I think you're right. Maybe this is the problem. Sometimes a user installs it in an existing partition and it works without any problems and sometimes a user creates a partition and forgets to reboot the X1000 and it doesn't work. It could be. Good idea!
Cheers,
ChristianLast edited by xeno74 on 22-Feb-2016 at 07:36 AM. Last edited by xeno74 on 22-Feb-2016 at 07:34 AM.

Before doing the last install I prepaired the drive with my Mint install. So no format or partitioning was needed. I'll give it another try ....... soon.

sudo mount -t vfat /dev/disk/by-label/your_pendrive /media
after
cd /media
sudo cp xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
and it will work for sure .

I believe I just have the card that came in my X1000, namely (according to Ranger) Radeon HD 5450. |
