I received my RapidRoad yesterday and I've just made the usb slots in my Amiga:
I will post more snapshots if there's no objection when I receive my clockport risers (it needs a couple), as I'll be using a Fast ATA MKIV plus a Clockport Expander by DJBase and a Prisma Soundcard. I just think this may be of some interest and they are products from four different developers. Edit: I think I'll better open a thread when that is ready.

I also have the nak timeout error on my 4000/040. Worse than that, I put it into Zorro II mode and it still doesn't work. I have the clockport model incidentally - do I need to do anything besides remove the perspex cover?
Has work begun on investigating the problem? If not, do we have some idea of timescales? Until a few weeks ago I'd wrongly assumed that the A3640 was just the upgrade card for the 4000/030, so I can see now just how big an issue this is. |

Do you get nak timeouts in z2 mode as well? If not I would guess there is something else that's the problem.

It's a driver issue I would guess. Maybe the clockport version has even more issues. Anyone else using the clockport version that could confirm this?

Yes, CP-RR on XSurf 100.
NAK errors. In a Phoenix Board, however - the worst case you can get . Cheers, McT |

I've holded my purchase of RR because of this problem, so I'm waiting for solving it too.

Jens is a clever guy, and he designed this system. So i would guess he knows exactly what the problem is.
My guess is that this is some hw related issue that cannot be resolved with a driver update. The silence we see here is some sort of damage control. Hell, we have offered to help test this stuff for over a year now, why not accept this help? Or he just dont care. Classic systems vs amiga reloaded. This is pure speculation, but this could easily been avoided with a tiny bit of openess towards his customers. Prove me wrong. |

I completely disagree. Jens has taken great care to ensure large compatibility. I am under the impression he is trying to fully identify and make this issue reproducible.
More often than not these issues have some root causes in the system. The phoenixboard for example is pure luck if a Z-II card works or not. Cheers, McT |

It dont work on a stock a4k. That is some great QA.
If he really wanted this sorted out it could be done ages ago. |

These updates are a controversial thing to me - see the communication around the prisma megamix.
Regarding the stock computer argument I also have become very cautious. It is a very old computer and at the same time we should be aware of the big number of cases where the RR works wonderfully. C= more often than not had a very interesting policy to build things with whatever was left over. How many revisions are there of the 4kD? I am aware that this doesn't help you. It just isn't as easy as it might seem. Have you opened an official ticket? Cheers, McT |

I just checked the website icomp.de - the ticketsystem is currently not available.
It was until recently, so I would assume it gets back soon. Cheers, McT |

1-2 sentences is all it takes. As quickly as it takes me to type this very line. Quote:
I'll also ask about the clockport model again: Is the clockport model the same as the X-Surf model minus the perspex cover? Do I need to do anything besides remove the cover? Cheers, Chris |
