Firmware Revisions and Existing OS Setup
&arch-title; machines are generally self-configuring and do not require
firmware configuration. However, you should make sure that you have
the appropriate ROM and system patches. On the Macintosh, MacOS
version >= 7.1 is recommended because version 7.0.1 contains a bug in
the video drivers preventing the boot loader from deactivating the
video interrupts, resulting in a boot hang. The Amiga bootstrap
requires ixemul.library, a version of which is
distributed on the CD-ROM. On the BVM VMEbus systems you should make
sure you are using BVMBug revision G or higher boot ROMs. The BVMBug
boot ROMs do not come as standard on the BVM systems but are available
from BVM on request free of charge.
FIXME: Mac needs >= 7.1 ? AmigaOS setpatch and ROM
revisions? (see the m68k FAQ)
