BPPCFix is installed correctly, no sign of ppc.library 68040.library or any
other
resident module.
I have tried without mmu.library installed,i have tried with the env vars,i
have copy manually the appropriate warpos libraries,i have put
mcpramlibpatch,
but the problem persists.
I have no BVision.
I have noticed that my amiga locks (I have not crashes but a system freeze,
that
i can only escape after 10-15 secs of ctrl amiga amiga keys pressed ,after
that the amiga reboots) when i first try to load powerpc.library from disk.
For example when i open the 'system' information module on scout , which
normally
would load powerpc.library and display infos about my system.
Another thing that came into my mind is if the problem has something to do
with my memory (2x 8MB simms).
After boot up i have ~13MB free...

thanks
