A-Max disks? - Page 66

Does this patched version of scsi.amhd work any better? I removed the A3000 SCSI check from it. (Remove ! from URL after pasting into your browser's URL bar.)

Code:

Extract the archive and copy/rename the file to DEVS:scsi.amhd

I just tested it to boot Mac System 7.1 from hard drive on an A2000/A2091/Kickstart 3.1 config.

Thank you very much, Mark!!
Apparently it's ME who does something wrong, as this one didn't work, either...
Maybe one/more mistakes with my WinUAE configuration and/or wrong hardfile....
I also tried to make a new, empty hardfile from scratch, but it's not even recognized by WinUAE as a proper device...

What can I say? It's not my lucky day and I'm afraid I'll die without being able to see Amax 2.56 in action!

Perhaps it just needs real hardware...

Tested-working HDF and config (delete ! after pasting into browser URL bar):

Code:

Boot the HDF, double-click A-Max QTX icon. Click Start A-Max II then OK. [You'll probably need to adjust the HDF path to match wherever you unpacked it to first.]

Holy cow!!
This works, at last!!!!!!
Mark, you are a treasure!

So the other HDF I was trying to use was all crap, sadly! What a senseless waste of time...
It was not my fault, I nearly went bananas trying to figure out what was wrong!
It played nicely also with my previous config, so I had fine-tuned it correctly!!
Many-many-many thanks, pal!!!!
