Hi All,

The new release is now completed and can be downloaded from:

https://github.com/deadw00d/AROS/releases/tag/ABIv11_20230430-1
https://axrt.org/downloads-aros

Below you will find final change log. Thank you everyone who tested this version. Enjoy using this release :)

I also prepared another alpha ISO, this time combining core system with contrib programs, including C and C++ compiler: https://axrt.org/development/aros-pc-x86_64-alpha-6.zip

Here is a list of known issues for the ISO:
- USB mouse/keyboard is only detected is connected during boot
- delay ~10 seconds when booting SATA disk
- nvme.device/SFS error in VirtualBox when installing
- possible NVME crash on some hardware, add 'NVME=disable' to grub command line as a workaround
- if you experience issues booting, try adding 'noacpi' or 'noioapic' to grub command line

FYI:

The master branch of my AROS repository has been updated with around 220 changes from main AROS repository and is now up-to-date with it.

If you have local linux-hosted compilations, it's best to do a full rebuild. The latest builds on build server, for both 64-bit and m68k, contain these changes.

Known issues:
a) Synchronization of usb 3.0 related work has been delayed to later date. As far as I understand the work is not done and it's possible that is introduces problems with existing 2.0 support
b) if you have local pc-x86_64 builds, InstallAROS process is currently broken - it will be fixed before next release.

If you detect addition issues after this update, let me know.

deadwood thank you for all you do !

Question, the new Contrib 20230430-1 is only for AROS ABIv11 ?

Now I can start creating an Alpha version of AROS One AROS ABIv11.

Well, there is no new ABIv11 release. 20230430-1 is still the "current" one. The previous post was only to inform about updated source in the repository.

Wow, I left this a long time,,, Well, after spending some time getting all my ROS machines up to date, I've sorted out a machine to test 64 bit native on (although booting from USB as I'm not quite ready to commit to a HD installation just yet).

Aside from audio and network everything I've tried works fine (running VESA graphics) aside from a coule of slight issue with two of the three USB ports not working (the third obviously does work) and when using Wanderer prefs to set the window background, when setting a gradient on selecting the second colour there's a crash. I've attached the PCITool output for the machine in case that could be of any future use.

One piece of software that does not work is the 64-bit version of FinalWriter demo. Of course this may be an entirely FW issue but I've attached the details in case it's of any help.

Cheers,
Nigel.

Thanks for following up on this and doing testing on your hardware.

With regards to FW, the 64-bit version is compiled for ABIv1, thus it will not work on these builds - they have different ABI. Once the emulator will be developed furter next year, you should be able to use 32-bit ABIv0 version on these builds.

Ah, I didn't appreciate this was a different ABI, many thanks for information. I shall ammend my post in the FW thread...

Cheers,
