ACA 1221ec boot problems
I am still having issues with my ACA1221ec... My A1200 boots to a grey screen if left alone at boot time.
Here is what I tried: A1200 with original 40Mb hard-disk : boots OK with ACA1221ec, full memory available A1200 with IDE 8gb flash card & ClassicWB : boots to grey screen with ACA1221ec A1200 with IDE 8Gb flash card & ClassicWB : boots OK with ACA1221ec removed OR jumper set to configure (NO additional RAM) A1200 with IDE 8Gb flash card & ClassicWB : boots OK if I hold the mouse button down during boot, then select "Reboot" button. Everything works from then on, until I try to reboot again. Running KS3.1 rom in Amiga. Any ideas? |

Thanks, I'll have a search.
I am using scsi.device v43.24 First line of the starfup-sequence is: IF EXISTS DEVS:scsi.device C:Loadmodule DEVS:scsi.device Endif Last edited by Gazza; 22 June 2018 at 00:39. |

Comment out those lines and see if it boots.
You may not have access to all your HDD without it, but you can work around it by making a custom ROM and soft kicking it, or burning it to eproms. This is what I had to do. |

I have an A1200 with 8Gb CF using KS 3.1 (40.068) which works fine but is slow / runs out of memory trying to use WHDLOAD. After adding an ACA1221EC, it now it hangs when starting up. I can force it to Reboot using the mouse buttons and then get into WB. I have the correct ACA1221EC library installed and tried mapping my KS using ACAMAPROM and that works OK. So I think I have the SCSI.device conflict, I am currently using v43.24 I have tried several later versions of scsi.device in the DEVS but they made no difference. I tried commenting out the same lines in the startup sequence but that had no effect; Amiga still hangs when starting up. Is it worth trying ACAMAPROM with one of the later Kickstarts like 45.064? Can you point me in the right direction re custom roms? |
