Although I don't want to encourage anyone to tinker on the boards (see discussion over at a1k.org), I can assist by marking the IPL0/IPL1/IPL2 lines on the accelerator(s). I'm not a programmer, more like an oldschool hacker and with very limited assembly knowledge. I found that my "personal survival kit" (cmon and megamon) are qute rarely used tools, probably because they're neither available on PD disk collections, nor on Aminet. They remind me of the good old S-MON on the C64 :-)
This is the first time I hear abour HRT-Mon - will take a look. I found a 1998 version on Aminet including all sources - can anyone check if it's complete, if the toolchain can still be set up after 12 years? Jens |

http://www.a1k.org/forum/showpost.ph...3&postcount=81 just remove the ".pdf" - board limitation. Toni, thanks for the link. HRTmon seems to be a lot more powerful than these old hackertools from A1000-days. Jens |

"If you generate that signal anyway, you might as well add the socket" is probably what designers back in the days were thinking. However, if you do the math, then...: Quote:

A discounted bundle of the new A600 accelerator + A603 + Indivision ECS would be cool. I'd be in.
Especially if the VGA cable was long enough to reach the place where the RF modulator used to be on my A600. |

Is SCSI performance on accelerators (except Cyberstorm MKIII/PPC) any good?
I doubt you can buy the SCSI chips that were used in the old days anymore. They don't make internal 2.5" SCSI hard drives which is what you want for an A1200/A600 desktop. I always wondered what desktop owners did with their SCSI controllers? Do we really want to be messing about & filling our cases with unnecessary SCSI->IDE->CF adapters again? Would it not be more practical to include an improved (over Gayle's PIO 0) 2.5" IDE controller which could be part of the FPGA (if they have enough pins)? It is probably too late in the day to add features?? |

Jens, it means you solved that problem that prevented you from completing development of A600 turboboard 3 years ago?

yeps seems I had scsi on the brain for last few days should have really asked for a faster HDD interface than the one on the motherboard
