Re: AmigaOS 4.1, Update 4: No Cd and floppy drive

Hi there back at ya! OK, I'm looking into update 4 and there is a new kernal (and next to it a kernal.debug); the debug, I believe, sends information out the serial device which means (if you were inclined) you could hook up a computer to the serial device/port and look at it; Ive done it in the pas...

Re: AmigaOS 4.1, Update 4: No Cd and floppy drive

Hi there!

There is a "floppy fix" for A1200's and A4000's that is mentioned in the original install (and FAQ) as some systems have issues. I had issues with my IDE DVD drive on install and used an Acard solution.

Re: Option to use ZorRAM as Fast Memory?

Hi again folks! I have those Bus numbers per Calgor's recommendations from my A4000T, CS-ppc with 128MB 60ns RAM, + 16MB motherboard RAM + Radeon 256MB RAM on the Mediator. At the end are the ROM speed and the bus test under OS 4.1 (to be complete). OS 3.9 BUS to RAM Access CHIP: BusSpeedTest 0.19 (...

Re: Option to use ZorRAM as Fast Memory?

I know I have the least ability to answer this question, but I going to guess: One, you hop off the CS-PPC board to the Zorro 3 bus. Two, you hop on the Mediator "bridge board." Three, you then get on the PCI bus. Four, you then hop up to the Radeon board and finally get to the RAM. Or: On...

Re: AmigaOS Classic 4.1 Update2 fails to install [SOLVED]

Hi! Sorry, to the best of my German language classes, the product are all German and build on the same hardware with various different shapes , perhaps from different stages of development. I. Bought mine from lpt2usb.net -- based on the http://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~heha/bastelecke/Rund%20um%20de...

Re: AmigaOS Classic 4.1 Update2 fails to install [SOLVED]

Hi again! The LPT2USB simply changes the 25-pin Centronics I/O interface to USB; it is bi-directional and works exactly the same as a Centronics parallel interface. Other than conversion from parallel to serial and back, it is transparent to the computer and printer: the USB printer thinks it is con...

Re: AmigaOS Classic 4.1 Update2 fails to install

Thanks for that, Calgor! I had seen the 256MB thing in ShowConfig and now I understand it; one buys a 256MB space in the Z3 bus, but only "pays" for 2/3rds of it. Well if I really needed the extra 128MB, I could have AmigaKit upgrade it. Otherwise I don't think changing the SCSI settings w...
