ArcaOS 5.1

[Remy]

My S1P1 ticket not taken yet!
I hope ArcaOs is going to check quickly to be able to boot and use again with my ArcaOs system
Booting win7 since the problem.

ArcaOs team working on.

Could some of you do a migration with Injoy firewall installed ?

Last message I have before the error message:
Installing IBM TCP/IP applications...

Hi Remy,

You should return your protocol and other files that Injoy firewall changes back to original so the injoy drivers and settings are removed.
You will find the uninstall command file in the documents somewhere, not near my server at present so cant check what it was.
The uninstall procedure will not delete any files, simply return the ini files back to normal. After you upgrade ArcaOS, simply rerun the install file.
Same procedure applies if you want to run mpts to change network drivers etc.

Hi Ian,

I uninstalled IJF drivers, checked config.sys and was well uninstalled
I run the intaller but again, went into error at same process time.

[Remy]

Always in error.
I tried to reduce the ini file which is big but after run checkini as well cleanini, the size dropped by about 20k
The remaining size is near 2.9MiB
Any idea how to lower the ini file size (without installing all products nor do a new installation)

Hi !

Because 5.1 migration failes, I decided to give a try to 5.0.8 migration i never did.
The 5.0.8 migration ended successfully !
Compared to 5.1, the migration seems having same process until end of phase 2 but then, 5.1 migration has additional TCPIP and TCPIP Applications steps ending with the error message.

Those having done 5.1 migration, do you remember having gone through tcpip processes after phase 2 (following first reboot) ?

Problem found and after correction, migration to 5.1 was ok.

Migration went into error due it doesn't recognize parameter metric on the ifconfig line while it well handle the ifconfig entry command
(I added a line in the past to change some specification on my interface 0 using the ifconfig command into the setup.cmd - something which should work)

Hi Remy,

After all your fun and games is there any advantage going to 5.1?  At the moment I am quite happy with 5.0.7 that is working without problems on my 30 inch 2560x1600 monitor.

Well, it seems to be more stable (may be better responsiveness but this is a subjective value)
Once the migration issue found, migration was fast.
currently, I'm satisfied

note: if arcamap was used under 5.0.x, this one is no more available under ArcaOS 5.1 (replaced by samba). I took my saved copy with its config file used in a local network only and it works.
