That's a very interesting problem. I do know that the 3.1 SetPatch
(v40.16) is compatible with the A3000. It works fine on my souped-up
3000T and a friend's stock 3000. Here's the output from my system:
Amiga Operating System
Copyright C 1985-1993 Commodore-Amiga, Inc.
All Rights Reserved.
SetPatch (V40.16) has already been installed. Patch list:
68040 Support Code Loaded
Enabled Advanced Graphics Modes
graphics/WriteChunkyPixel() patched
Memory Pools
Enabled data cache
I actually started using this version of SetPatch before I upgraded from
Workbench 2.1. It worked fine then too, but the patch list was a bit
longer. 🙂 Anyway, there must be something unique to your system that
makes SetPatch crash. Have you messed with your DMAC/Ramsey settings at
all? Do earlier versions (say v37.xx) work on your system? I'm curious
because I've never seen an Amiga that crashes SetPatch. As they say,
there's a first time for everything…
