Re: forgot how to enter X1000 boot menu from CFE ?

Any ideas to fix?

I can type MENU_0_COMMAND on CFE prompt and that will boot, but I can't seem to ...

Re: JTAG debugger?

The kernel developer Thomas Frieden has or has access to a JTAG debugger. AFAIK no other developer has one. They are not needed at the OS4 development level, we have higher-level debugging tools.

Apart from Thomas, I think they are only used by the hardware developers (VariSys). Perhaps they could ...

Hi All,

I was going to post this under AmigaOne x1000 forum, but do not have a New Topic button there for some reason. But it's a development question so may be OK here too.

I'm looking to buy a bdi3000 JTAG debugger while I still can, with pa6t support. Has anyone used one of these? Any comments ...

Extended Memory Objects, their use and goals

I'm very excited to hear about EMOs, and our first steps beyond 32bit addressing space.

As so much existing software is 32bit only, is it fair to assume that these, and the things that new software will still need to do that way, will reside in the lower 4GB window for 32bit addressing? Or have I ...

Re: How to create a USBsniffer ?

Ugh, timeout ate my post and I hadn't saved a draft.

Check out this, it was suggested for this sort of thing on stack exchange.

I'd think of such a tool as an FPGA project. FPGA on PCI, or PCI-Express card with memory. The Raggedstone PCI FPGA cards have USB ports ...
