Amiga Recoverable Alert

Amiga Recoverable Alert

Recoverable Alerts are non-critical crashes in the Amiga computer system. In most cases, you can resume work after one, and save your data, while a normal, red Guru Meditation always results in an immediate reboot.

Many experts nevertheless recommend to reboot as soon as possible after encountering a Recoverable Alert, because the system may be in an unpredictable state that can cause data corruption.

Attempting to load on a Kickstart 2.0 or later Amiga produces a Recoverable Alert, although it is not actually recoverable, as the game does not load on these systems.
