A Working version of the A/UX 3.1 update file?
I installed A/UX 3.01 on my Quadra 650, and it says it will not boot because the MacOS partition that is used to boot it is too old to run on this system, I need 7.1 or greater I think
anyway, any suggestions would be greatly apprecaited
thanks

The image at ftp://ftp.geo.tu-freiberg.de/pub/incoming/AUX_3.1_Update.toast_image.gz should work. Decompress it and burn it to CD.

The disk image for the update to 3.1.1 is at ftp://ftp.geo.tu-freiberg.de/pub/aux/jagubox/Apple.fixes/supported/aws-tuneup-2.0/Diskimage1.hqx

From the A/UX FAQ:

quote:
A/UX will run on the Quadra 610 and 650s (recall that A/UX
requires the _real_ 68040 chip!) with a little bit of work:

You should make a copy of the A/UX Install Boot floppy and then copy the
Enabler for the Q610|650 onto this copy. You then boot up from this floppy
and install A/UX as usual. Finally, you'll need to copy the Q610|650
Enabler onto the A/UX MacPartition (or whatever MacOS disk you will use
when starting up your Mac and booting A/UX); do this by first booting off
a boot floppy or boot CD and then copy the Enabler over. You do _not_ need
to make any changes to the A/UX System Folder (i.e. the System Folder used
under A/UX).
