I can confirm, it doesn't.


The problem is with Workbench 3.2.2 with added AmiDock (from 3.9).

If you don't use the ROM version/s as used by Caffeine OS, there is every chance you will see issues.

How exactly do you update the firmware?

[alexh]

PiSTorm32 FPGA firmware is part of the RPi image. Download the latest Emu68 SD card image Put it on the SD card in the Pi as normal.

What do you mean? I really don't understand what "using the ROM version/s as used by Caffeine OS" means.

Go read about Caffeine & Coffin OS's.

Google is your friend.

@Blumenkraft I think he means that you shouldn't supply your own kick.rom file like the emu68 instructions tell you too, instead you use the supplied caffeine.rom

Although why be obtuse I don't know. When my SD-card arrives I will give Caffeine a try as well and try to remember to report back here.

Caffeine has a customised ROM image specifically tailored for the distribution - some of the software in the disk image relies on it and so you shouldn't run your own ROM injection with Caffeine.

I'm running 3.2 on my A1200 with 3.1 ROMs, and using the PiStorm to inject the 3.2 ROM at boot, and it's working perfectly.

Awesome, thanks Dunny!

I wasn't aware I was being obtuse....

I can get my pistorm32-Lite working with shipped sd card however when I try and use the latest software/firmware, on a new SD card, I can not get it to boot. Is anyone else having problems? When I copy the old software onto the new sd card it works fine so it formatted correctly.

Are you using an sd card extension cable? If so, remove it and try again.
