It is very likely that it does not work with A3000. Z2 DMA can't support memory outside of 24-bit address space (A3000 fast RAM) and because board/ROM is so very old, it most likely does not know how to work around it (by using PIO mode). btw, I am still waiting for ROM dump :) (Dump would also...

I had to reply because this is very common, sometimes accidental (like yours), sometimes just repeating something that someone else (incorrectly) said on the internet or some magazine or something.. If I remember correctly, I read about A1000's expansion port being "upside down" practically...

Do not insert anything upside down in A1000 expansion slot! It will permanently damage the expansion board if system is powered up. Correct setup is back to front, not upside down. This is yet another popular Amiga myth but probably also the most dangerous.

Does WB 2.0+ disk tools/showconfig or sysinfo expansion list show the Supradrive card?. It should have autoconfig ID 1056/3 (decimal) or 0420/03 (hex).

Tested in emulation: fastscsi.device 4.2 ("fastscsi.device (fastscsi device (romversion) V4.2 (06-FEB-95)") uses unit 8 for IDE master. 0-7 are for SCSI. I don't have v4.0 (which most likely works identically, unit number change would have been too confusing), it is located at $e90000 to...

http://www.l8r.net/install/hard_drive_cont/supraboot.dms includes Supradrive 2000 compatible disk based driver (which was used for emulation testing). Autoconfig ID should be 0x0420/0x03 (1056/3). And slight correction: Officially it is called "SupraDrive 2000" and later non-DMA one is called...

Wow. It is very rare SupraDrive 2000 DMA. Supra's attempt to create DMA HD controller but apparently it wasn't that good. All later models were PIO. It is not same as "plain" SupraDrive 2000. Could you dump the boot ROM? It can be done using software if you don't have ROM reader, no HD needed...

Could you also check rom version? "version MASOBOSHI.device" in CLI (case sensitive!). I am still trying to find mythical final and fixed v2.204 that no one seems to have.

Hi, I am still looking for EC040. Sending pm :)

I don't think idefix would work. Did Idefix exists in late 1993? Also, idefix adds ide doubler support to existing port but this board adds two new ports. Unless it overrides internal port? Which is possibility because it does not use autoconfig so IDE ports probably are located somewhere near...

Autoconfig is only for RAM board. So those bigger socketed chips probably are CPLD's, not ROMs and IDE isn't bootable. There is also socket for clock chip (clock chip not included but mostly useless 2 IDE ports are included?) What does it say next to the rightmost IDE port? 1321something? I...

I have no idea but it feels strange to have non-CPU IDE expansion for Amiga 1200 that already has built-in IDE.. Autoboot ROM dump would be really interesting (can be done using software), but first, could you include WB 3.1 "tools/showconfig debug" output?

Yes and no.. Colors are technically 100% correct but actual reason is usually interpreted far too literally. For example green screen (bad chip ram) means "writing and then reading from chip ram didn't return same data", it does not necessarily mean chip ram itself is broken. (RAM chips...

If it is very quick flash immediately after power up (and only after power up), it is normal and caused by color palette (inside Denise) contents being partially random before KS boot code resets it after short delay. I have seen full white, full black and full red and it can depend on Denise...

68EC060 arrived today, it looks fine, no bend pins or other external damage.
