How to make games / demos / programs work

One thing to remember owning a 68060 is it's architecture. This means that "dirty" programs will not work, and crash.

One rule is to avoid packing executables with Powerpacker, because some times the decrunch code will trash the data cache resulting in a system crash. If you have programs packed with Powerpacker decrunch them or recrunch with Imploder if you really need.

How to make most games and demos work on 1260:

1. Disable the data-cache. "Cpu nodatacache" from cli will do.
2. Move the VBR back to chip. Use Aminet/util/misc/vbr.lha (2k)

Make a scriptfile that does this for you, and if a game/demo doesn't work then run the script.
