it's not needed since a long time ago. The drivers can check what is connected alone. At least on recent hardware, but it should be the same with the MicroA1 as the SATA drivers are the same.
If you want to remove it, do from uboot:
setenv sii3114ide_conf
save

No, as your system stopped at the animation disk not one single file was loaded from the startup-sequence and other scripts. At this point only kickstart files are loaded.

Note the IDE drivers default to PIO on old Eyetech hardware. See the documentation for details.

Yes, the "xfer" variable is still useful.

I can assure you that slb_v2 with support for Linux and SFS does indeed support DOS7. DOS7 is the minimum supported filesystem and the one that must be used for an OS4 partition unless SFS is used instead. Something else is at play here.

The only thing I know to not support DOS7 is the Parthenope Linux bootloader for the Sam.

If that is so then how does Mounter open the SATA device driver? ;-)

That one doesn't support SFS either.

(AFAIK it supports the incompatible AROS SFS version, probably for booting AROS, but it doesn't support the AmigaOS SFS.)

My SAM460ex has SFS AOS4.1 as boot partition and works fine.
I changed from SFS2 to SFS 'cos Parthenope booter doesn't support SFS2 IIRC.

Hello,

I have MicroAone with UBoot 1.1.1, can i install Uboot 1.1.4 or 1.2.0 on my MicroAone?

I use Amiga OS 4.1 only, not linux, are you sure that Uboot work qith Amiga OS 4.1 ?

If yes, where can i download this Uboot 1.1.4 or 1.2.0?

Can i connect PCI GFX Card on My microAone with this version of UBoot (1.1.4 or 1.2.0) ?

Thanks

Thomasrapp was correct.....the problem all along was something in my kickstart directory. Specifically, it was a file named diskboot.config (not kicklayout).

On my non-booting partition it contained this:

; $VER: diskboot.config 53.1 (21.6.2008)
;
; device units flags (1 = mount HD, 2 = mount CD/DVD, 3 = both, +4 = support LUNs)
it8212ide.device 16 3
lsi53c8xx.device 64 3
cybppc.device 16 7
scsi.device 8 2
2nd.scsi.device 8 2
a1ide.device 4 3
sii0680ide.device 16 3
;sii3112ide.device 8 3
;sii3114ide.device 16 3
;sii3512ide.device 8 3

Yikes! When did I do that!
No wonder I couldn't boot from the 3112 or 3114 cards with this in my kickstart directory!
So I removed the comments from the last 3 lines, did a cold reboot, and all now works!
