Yeah that would be great, I read into the kryoflux but I t just wouldn’t be worth it for me to get my own, it took some convincing for the wife to let me pay £180 (including postage) for the Casablanca but she let me get it❤️. I’m currently building a raspberry pi based arcade controller, I’ve done a few things similar in the past as I said I’m into retro gaming and stuff (not very good at actually playing games lol) but I love doing stuff like that.

Ah you live and learn I guess!,
These have just a standard pc floppy drive right? I was thinking of swapping the beige one over for a black one that’s all as it would look better, got plenty of them. |

Casablanca arrived but examination has to wait, too much other winuae related updates to do. And I also expect to get enough donations to cover the postage
Question: if Amiga programs (even shell programs) can't be used (if you want to see the output), does serial remote shell work normally? I need some easy way to run shell programs. I also need to image the HD and replace it with SCSI to IDE + CF combination. I don't want to use ancient hard disks.. |

We never ended up trying the serial port, our results were achieved by redirecting output to a file on the boot disk, then reading the disk back in.

Status:
ROMs dumped ("74095 00 717 02 01 U4" and "74095 00 717 02 02 U5"). Does anyone know if there are different ROM versions? CRC32: 1bdcd18c and 6ccb0431. ROMs mapped to address space (address zero) in emulation. Boot code (non-encrypted part at the beginning of ROM image) runs, decrypts the ROM (I thought PIC was part of decryption but decryption code is in plain text in boot code), sets up MMU tables, enables MMU, does something, then gets stuck in infinite loop. MMU is required, MMU is used to remap ROM (at usual $f8xxxx space), also oddly enough used to map RAM at address zero for exception vectors (instead of moving VBR). RAM is hardwired at $40000000. That was the simple part. Next comes lots of unknowns. How does interrupts work? (No Paula), addresses of all weird Casablanca-only hardware. And much more.. EDIT: Board contains too many FPGAs and CPLDs.. Thats not very real-time Last edited by Toni Wilen; 05 April 2018 at 19:28. |

@Toni Wilen
You have to be creative, but you can use this command to get visual interaction with a Casablanca. This is the preliminary documentation I have made: Code:
crequest Casablanca Requester Version: 1.4 (30.3.98) requires a Casablanca with libs:ovlgfx.library. TEXT/A,GADTXT/A, RESET Displays a requestchoice window with a small border around it. Text is automatically centered. If a line of text exceeds the available line space, wordwrap and newline are automatically applied. The "^" character (without quotes) instructs a newline. The "|" character (without quotes) is a separator for button choices. RESET should be put at the very end of crequest lines to apply a screen clear operation (cls). If not, crequest windows will stack on top of each other. Example: Set Version "V2.9.4 Beta" crequest "CASABLANCA Installation^============================^This disk contains ${Version}.^Please select language." "Deutsch|English" RESET set temp0 "$rc" if $temp0 eq 2 skip English endif if $temp0 eq 1 skip Deutsch endif |

I don't see how it helps. As I said I need to run shell commands, in real time. Anything else is unacceptable.

It "boots" a bit in emulation now, enough for exec to get memory added.

Currently it get stuck in routine that continuously writes "bug 1" to some IO addresses (perhaps front panel display?). Following unknown IO addresses are read or written multiple times during boot: 02000003 02000043 02000083 020007c3 (this must return >=4 or boot code enters in infinite loop) 024009e3 (boot code writes different status codes to this register while booting) 024009eb 02400bf3 02400fc3 02400fc7 02400ff3 |

As attachment you will find a tool for serial line command console execution on the Casablanca. For details on its usage read the following thread from post #89 onwards: http://www.a1k.org/forum/showthread.php?t=45960&page=5 Hope this helps now Last edited by gulliver; 08 April 2018 at 12:01. |

newshell aux: does not work? (with aux-handler patched to use correct serial device name). I only want confirmation. I am not interested in experimenting with boring stuff. Again: I want to run shell commands, not some built-in minimal commands that don't do exactly what I want. No workarounds accepted! |

This one seems to have another CRC32.
It is a rom 1.6 (08.97) with a CRC32 F4BF7FCD It was sent to me 8 years ago. :O Last edited by gulliver; 06 April 2018 at 12:47. |

It is quite useless without matching U4 dump (even words).

This is U4 of the same machine.

They are exact same as mine. Only difference is that your dumps are byteswapped for some reason.

All other roms I have match those other two CRC32.

The old link has been updated: https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...kp?usp=sharing - Video Spicerack was the same as the previous one - Effekt Diskette was the same as the previous Effekt Diskette 1 - The image for Monument titler 1.6 has a different checksum than the previous one, but the payload inside (md1.lzx) is the same. Seems the previous one we had was a clean install disk, not an update. The ones you provided are actual update disks. - Schriften Diskette 2 and Monument titler 1.5 need to be redumped, lots of bad sectors. - Bluebox 2 was reconstructed even though there was a bad sector. It was on an empty track, so it didn't matter. I just filled it in with the appropriate fill pattern. If you have the energy, could you try redumping the bad ones please? It's a good idea to clean the drive heads first and potentially the disks need cleaning too. Last edited by Jope; 08 April 2018 at 08:31. |
