[Oberon] Empty Bluebottle screen

31 Dec 2002

      Hello,

Today, I tried and installed the new Bluebottle. I get a marvellous
blue-magenta screen with a working mouse cursor, but no more. The screen is
completely empty. I give below my Aos.par file. Can you tell me what happens
and what I can do?

Thanks.

# Aos config strings

# You must correctly configure at least section 1 below. The other sections
have reasonable defaults.

# To boot with noboot.exe from DOS (IDE or Adaptec 7xxx SCSI):

# c:\native> noboot.exe AosIDE.Bin Aos.Par

# For an Adaptec 7xxx SCSI driver, use AosAda7.Bin instead of AosIDE.Bin

# To make a bootable partition or Diskette (from Native Oberon or Aos), use
the following commands:

# Partitions.UpdateBootFile IDE0#01 AOS:AosIDE.Bin ~

# Partitions.SetConfig IDE0#01

# Partitions.UpdateBootFile Diskette0#0 AOS:AosIDE.Bin ~

# Partitions.SetConfig Diskette0#0

# Add "~" at end of this text, so that SetConfig can read its parameters
directly here.
