WinUAE not recognising some 3.1 roms...

I like WinUAE 1.4.6.0 new kickstart rom scan. However, I have

Kickstart v3.1 rev 40.60 (1993)(Commodore)(CD32).rom
Kickstart v3.1 rev 40.63 (1993)(Commodore)(A500-A600-A2000).rom

and WinUAE doesn't recognise these 2 above.

Most likely they are corrupted, modified or hacks. Only confirmed retail ROMs are included.

Include checksums, thanks. (CRC32, use for example fsum.exe)

I used md5sum from cygwin... but I guess all crc32s are the same...

It looks to me like you did md5 which is a 128 bit secure hash. What you want is crc32 which is a communications hash that only outputs 32 bits.

doh! thought md5 & crc32 are the same things...

anyway, I used Beyond Compare which shows CRC column (not sure if it's 32-bit)... can't copy column so I painstakenly manually typed out ALL crc32s

Let me know which ones are good & which bad.

You could have posted a screenshot instead of typing it out

edit: just checked the crcs of 3 of em, the a500+/cd32/a1200 and they are all fine and there's no reason WinUAE shouldn't recognise them.

Oh, WinUAE doesn't recognise:

Kickstart v3.1 rev 40.60 (1993)(Commodore)(CD32).rom
Kickstart v3.1 rev 40.63 (1993)(Commodore)(A500-A600-A2000).rom

but recognise the rest. I haven't tried to see if it runs the kickstart.. am just talking about the ROM scanner.

So you say 1e62d4a5 *Kickstart v3.1 rev 40.60 (1993)(Commodore)(CD32).rom works for you and your WinUAE rom scanner recognises it? Try copying all roms but Kickstart v3.1 rev 40.60 (1993)(Commodore)(CD32).rom from your kickstart folder. Click on Rescan ROMs in WinUAE...

[Belgarath]

That's because you need two roms for CD32 support, you must be missing
CD32 Extended-ROM r40.60 (1993)(Commodore)(CD32)

Production A500/A200 Kickstart release (did *not* appear in the A500+, that was 2.05...)

Production CD32 Kickstart release, NOT confirmed to be genuine but likely to be (anyone with a CD32 want to dump their Kickstart and finally put this one to rest?)

All this and more at http://kickstartrevival.dynalias.com/ for the insanely curious (though the site is desperately unfinished and likely to always be - I always have more good intentions than time, but the table is solid).

I can confirm this. But note that this ROM does not really exist

CD32 ROM chip is single 16-bit (!) 1M ROM (512kx16) which contains both Kickstart and extended ROM, interleaved and byteswapped.

I'm having a problem with WinUAE recognising the 3.1 ROM I've got. I'm sure it came with Amiga Forever that I bought a while back, but I've since lost the installer, but still have the rom file.

Does the file have to be named anything specific for WinUAE to recognise it, or should it be ok as long as it ends in .rom?

thanks

Amiga Forever ROMs are encrypted. You need the corresponding rom.key file, too, otherwise WinUAE cannot decrypt it.
