ArcaOS DVD and bootable USB stick available

Hi All

@Rich
Followed your PM instructions.


Further investigations on this install 5.0.5 from USB flash drive.

My system case has 2 front USB ports and a further front USB port is provided by my USB 2.0 internal cardreader.

All of those ports can be used to install 5.0.4 but none of those ports can be used to install 5.0.5

The same USB flash drive is involved for both 5.0.4 and 5.0.5 install attempts.


My Dell 1707FP monitor has an inbuilt 4 port USB 2.0 hub.

No problems installing 5.0.4 or 5.0.5 via any of the monitor USB ports.

I had not tried the monitor ports previously because I tend to use the system case front ports for any form of install as if the monitor gets turned off the USB connection is lost - definitely not a good thing to happen during an install.


Seems that for 5.0.5 not all USB ports are equal...


Regards

Pete

Yes network and sound is working. Is a replacement for a 10 year old HP desktop that is showing its age.

PC is working very well.

thanks. I meant the RAM that's seen by OS/2, without the RAM disk. In ArcaOS, there exists the "mem" utility that shows the RAM available to the system. (I hope it's more than 2 GB.)

That mainboard has an old chipset, but is still available, what makes it so interesting.

Hi Andreas,

it shows 3.5 GB to ArcaOS.

This mb is working very well and has bought a another PC with simular HW.

I just bought the same motherboard and have only 1519 MB available to the system.
The difference is in the processor, I use a Ryzen 3 3200, you a 1200. The 3200 has integrated graphics and the bios seems to reserve 2 gb for it. Which graphics card fo you use?

Rene Hvidsoe:
Hi Guzzi,

I use a NVIDIA GTX1050 with 2 GB memory.

Andreas Schnellbacher:
Really bad news. I think I'll rather stick to my 2 GB FM2+ mainboard.

ivan:
Strange that.  Most of my systems are using Ryzen 3 2200G processors because they give video out on all the v-out sockets.

Based on 8 GB memory mem gives the following.


[C:\]mem -v

Total physical memory:      7,906 MB
Accessible to system:       3,311 MB
Additional (PAE) memory:    4,595 MB

Resident memory:              198 MB
Available virtual memory:   3,760 MB

Available process memory:
  Private low memory:         217 MB
  Private high memory:      2,240 MB
  Shared low memory:          153 MB
  Shared high memory:       2,014 MB



[C:\]mem
7,906 MB  (3,311 MB accessible to system)

which runs everything I want without problems.
