At boot i have this error before the display of the background pattern.....

don"t know what it means, any idea ?

The most likely cause is that an Obey file had been edited (e.g. by inserting a newline part-way through an existing line) such that an optional parameter (in this case "-Colour") now appears at the start of the line. The command parser will assume that "-Colour" is a file to be executed, and will try (and fail) to find it.

Hmmm. "-Colour" isn't that common a parameter name, and you say it happens just before the background pattern appears. Perhaps it's happening during Pinboard setup...

Try looking in the PinSetup obey file (either !Boot.Choices.Boot.Tasks.PinSetup or !Boot.Choices.Users.Single.Boot.Tasks.PinSetup depending on which flavour of RISC OS 4 you are running). The second line of the file should look something like

Code: Select all

x Backdrop -Colour &77777700 -TextColour &ffffff00 -Tile BootResources.Configure.Textures.T11L

but you may find that the line starts with "-Colour" and/or the line has been split in two (with "x Backdrop" on one line and the remaining parameters on the next line).

This may not be exactly what's gone wrong, but it should give you an idea what to look for.
