Too late:o
Viktor,
Confirming TF received today. Thank-you. I'll provide positive feedback shortly.
My setup:
Amiga 2000
AdRam memory card. 6/8Mb populated
Buddha IDE connected to an IDE to CF flash adapter (Ebay). using 4Gb CF card - I previously had a 120Gb SSD via an IDE to SATA adapter. I removed it.
ZZ9000 RTG
Gotek drive
System will not boot with AdRam memory card plugged in. Regardless of memory configuration 2/4/6Mb setting. Boots to yellow screen
Buddha IDE working fine.
ZZ900 detected by SysInfo. (This is what I'm mostly interested in). I have not yet tried the video output. I was told the scan doubler always works regardless of processor or RTG drivers.
The RAM card issue is not that important once Lukas writes the driver for the ZZ (it has 1Gb onboard ram).
Since I haven't touched an Amiga in 25(?) years, I have no idea how to transfer files to it.
I imagine I can somehow create adf files and place them on the gotek.
I need to install picasso and the ZZ drivers.
Hi Profplum, can I ask how the zz drivers comes? I think that the simplest way, if you have a gotek, is to use winuae , create an empty adf and put the files on it and use the adf in the gotek.
About the memory Viktor is the only one that can help.
Can I ask you which Kickstart do you have?
Thanks
I found an app called Total Commander. It allows modifying adf files. I started with a blank file and added to it as required.
I have picasso and the zz drivers installed.
I tried picasso96 from aminet but no go. I had to purchase the newer one from Individual Computers.
From prefs, I can change screen mode to all zz supported modes.
I just haven't done it yet (It will switch to hdmi and i'll lose the screen) because the A2000 case is still open.
I need spacers for the gotek to mount it and need to add the lock screw to the zz.
I also need to install the new ZZ firmware and new drivers. Heading to work in an hour (early morning meeting). All will be done tomorrow.
As for kickstart, I purchased a cloanto dual boot rom 1.3/3.1. I am using it in 3.1 mode (it has a switcher). Purchased from Ebay.
I am aware there is now a 3.1.4. I need to purchase it. I am holding back a bit as I just heard a 3.2 will be released soon.
I remember GadgetUK had same issues with AdRam. Can You please provide a link to that card? Seems i can't find anything about...
Ok, will check,
For now i can say: cards that make proper automount - are wotking correctly, and cards that break automount chain (stop searching for zorro devices as soon as they get mounted) are not working, and that's issue of the respective card, not TF534..
Update:
So I installed the video and ethernet drivers to the ZZ.
When I enable any ZZ RTG screen resolution, there is a mouse 'trail' and after 15 seconds or so, the computer hangs.
(But the display looked awesome for a while).
I tried removing and reinstalling the zz. There was no difference.
I believe the TF is interfering with it. I guess I will have to get a A2630 or something else and give it a try.
