| I have all the required stuff in my Mac applications folder for FlowerPot/MacOS/FlowerPot/drive_c/FlowerPot/ROMs
Namely I have the 3 rom files, the rom.key file, and the ClassicInstallCD-53.71.iso file. But when
I run FlowerPot and then click on Install OS4, I get a window with a System Request in it which says:
Please insert the volume:
AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition
in any drive
This message seems to me to be saying that "ClassicInstallCD-53.71.iso" should really be called
"AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition.iso". On the other hand, when I cancel this request, I get a message in the window that says "I need ClassicInstallCD-53.71.iso in the WinUAE CD drive". If this is the case, how do I put that in the WinUAE CD drive? Thanks.

I had the same issue. I downloaded the ISO from Hyperion again and then it worked fine.v Last edited by Kraftwerk2 on 29-May-2017 at 02:29 AM.

How does it run? Is it emulating Windows? It should be using a Mac native version of UAE. |

It appears to run Wine and (maybe within that) WinUAE.

That solved my problem. It is now up and running.
I guess I should confess that I ordered the CD of OS4.1 Final Edition Classic (I like having the physical media). I then used the Mac DiskUtility to create an ISO file from the CD and put that into FlowerPot. I don't really understand ISO files, but I'm guessing that FlowperPot did not recognize something in the layout of the ISO file that I had created and that's what it was really complaining about.
Thanks.

Lol, I did the exact same thing except I created my ISO file using Disk Util on the MAC. When that failed I tried the download and it worked like a charm. _________________
