Ticket #597 (Duplicate)Mon May 15 16:04:02 UTC 2023
RISC OS 5 !Configure is inaccessible when softloading over RISC OS 3.x
| Reported by: | Cameron Cawley (3514) | Severity: | Normal |
| Part: | RISC OS: Boot sequence | Release: | |
| Milestone: | Status | Duplicate |
Details by Cameron Cawley (3514):
Because !Boot.RO*Hook.Res is added to BootResources$Path in PreDesktop, which is set up differently depending on what version of RISC OS you first boot from, double clicking on !Boot will start the RISC OS 3.x !Configure application regardless of which version of RISC OS is actually running. This leaves a number of configuration options inaccessible in a softload environment.

Isn’t this just a different manifestation of the issue I explain in detail in
https://gitlab.riscosopen.org/RiscOS/Sources/Sy…
whereby you’re trying to use a Choices for 3.70 with 5.xx? I did all the other movements in DesktopBoot and believe it’s now waiting for you to come up with a scheme that swaps the choices based on softload. That’ll fix this as well.
