Re: 4.1 fe long boot process

OK. I've tried many a thing this afternoon. I found that whatever drive is on ports 1 or 3 times out on UBoot. UBoot can't figure out what is on ports 1 or 3. This is the case no matter how I have sii3114ide_conf set up. Even with that envvar taken out, UBoot times out on those ports. Perhaps I need...

Re: 4.1 fe long boot process

The NTFS drive is from my wife's old PC. She recently got a Macbook Air and wanted me to backup her hard drive from the PC. After all of the files are backed up, I'll most likely remove the drive from my system.

Re: 4.1 fe long boot process

Ok. Port 0 = SATA HD with AmigaOS 4.1 FE with SLB2 Port 1 = SATA DVDRW Port 2 = SATA HD with NTFS Port 3 = Nothing As I understand the documentation, ports 0 and 2 are parallel as are ports 1 and 3. What I don't quite understand is how to setup sii3114ide_conf as it deals with master/slave designati...

Re: 4.1 fe long boot process

I recently added a sii3114 card and a SATA DVDRW drive. I removed the SATA/PCIe jumper and set the UBoot prefs to PCIe. When I switch my SAM460ex on it remains on the initial UBoot screen showing "USB - done SATA - " for around thirty seconds before SATA returns done. I imagine something n...

4.1 fe long boot process

Good day, I've been using fe for a month now. When I installed fe, I installed a sata drive at the same time. I transferred files from my pata work partition to the sata work partition. Then I removed the pata hd. After removing the pata hd, booting fe became unusually long. It stays in the initial ...

Re: Single slot graphics cards?

Good day,

For a few years, I used a PCI riser card like the one mentioned above, with my dual slot HD 4850. Recently, I ditched the riser card in favor of a Thermalright HR-03 GT wrap around cooler for my graphics card. It keeps the card very cool and opens up the PCI slot.

SAM460ex J25 audio expansion

Good day,

I am aware that the J41 AC97 connector works. Does the J25 audio connector work with OS4.1?

Yes, I have emailed this very query to Acube with no response. Perhaps I should email or PM Ross Vumbaca?

Re: Linux on Sams -Screenshots-

Thank you for the information on the LiveCD and the link for Lubuntu. You are welcome for the riser card idea. I have used the ARC1-152-C7 riser card for a few years now with no problems. Since I am now using the HR-03 GT wrap around heatsink on the 4850, I have freed up the PCI slot. If I get a new...

Re: Linux on Sams -Screenshots-

Might psensor be included in the SAM460 live CD, or do I have to do a full install?
