I kind of see what's going on here. You have BigRAMPlus or Zorram the file already has a section for this which you are not using:
;Setup for board 3643/32 ;This board contains memory and requires no special threadment. ;In case accessing this memory with COPYBACK enabled causes crashes, ;please remove the semicolon in front of the next line: ;SetCacheMode FROM 0x70000000 SIZE 0x10000000 CACHEINHIBIT NONSERIAL IMPRECISE You can remove your line: SetCacheMode from 0x70000000 size 0x10000000 Copyback and just delete the semicolon from the line he includes: SetCacheMode FROM 0x70000000 SIZE 0x10000000 CACHEINHIBIT NONSERIAL IMPRECISE And change these lines: SetCacheMode from 0x50480000 size 0x0BA80000 CACHEINHIBIT SetCacheMode from 0x42D00000 size 0x00200000 CACHEINHIBIT |

Again thanks for all directions. But still even with the updated mmu-config I have the same issue.
So that means a clean install indeed. And like you said, Hedeon, I will first start with a CSPPC (without Sonnet) setup (and use a normal IDE CDROM drive on my first IDE cable, without IDEfix). Any advice on what WarpOS version to use? BTW I think my CSPPC has an overclocked 060 (rev.6) at 66MHz, could that be a cause? (I don't feel like, asking someone, soldering a different crystal on it though. Last edited by spudje; 28 September 2017 at 22:20. |

One final thing where I may have gone wrong. I've used these instructions to setup the voodoo monitor device (ignore the p96 version we discussed that earlier in this thread).

Spudje - that's correct and all part of the Picasso set up on the mediator. And you have quake running on your 060 and video card, right? So that's not where the problem is.

Fixed a remaining memory leak.
Fixed a problem with overlaid files. New build on Git. Last edited by Hedeon; 14 October 2017 at 22:30. Reason: Added overlaid files |

Hedeon: I'm afraid build 286 stops on InitPPC, telling me my swap jumper is incorrect. Build 284 which is fine with the swap jumper either way.

Is the date in the file 14.10.17? You meant the window size jumper? Last edited by Hedeon; 16 October 2017 at 00:29. |

285 and 286 running ok here, although I'm still having to use setcmemdiv 4 to stop the random crashes.
For those of us who are not savvy with coding, what is the meaning of fixing overlaid files? |

I fixed a problem with overlaid files. These are quite uncommon executables. SetVNC is an example. DPaint also, I heard.
Loading them gives a negative seglist. The Loadseg() patch didn't account for that. So travelling through the segments resulted in invalid memory pointers. |

That's quite a coincidence - I noticed yesterday with #284 and then #285 I would get a crash when loading the ViNCEd settings (SetVNC) but only with the sonnet initialised. I was going to report it, but with #286 this morning I noticed that the crash no longer occurred. How random!

Go buy a lottery ticket, quick! :-)
I have VNC installed but actually use KingCON (it's in my ROM). I got notified by someone some time ago that SetVNC crashed. Didn't come around to things until recently. The memory leak was more important for me now I use more and more C compilers on the PPC side. They tended to go out of memory after a while. Now they can actually compile a whole project in one go. Heavy memory usage still triggers some odd behaviour now and then. Full memory but still getting an out of memory error. I only have seen it with gcc thusfar and after hours of usage. |

Apologies, I think the excitement of migrating my A4000 into a tower case got to me and I must have accidentally installed an old version All working fine now!

The memory initialization code was pulled straight from the Mac driver. Sonnet claims that the Sonnet 7200 PCI card can handle 3x256MB.... |

Hi,
In documentation for Sonnet is written: 5V 168 pins FPM DIMMs 2K Refresh (up to 256 MB in combination with the Voodoo3; 128MB with other supported video cards). So, I tested this DIMMs, Sonnet detect this RAM wit some address but if I run the command Sonnet Init then i receive message that VGA card not detected and I see then guru error with RamLib. I have gfx card Radeon with 256 MB RAM and half RAM a can see in Workbench. So, it will be wrong with this DIMMs? I need DIMMs with 2K Refresh, not 4K Refresh? In original Mac with Sonnet 7200 this DIMMS should be working as I read at many sites on web. So I need then DIMMs with 2K Refresh and not 4K Refresh? What type of DIMMs RAM currently working with Sonnet on Amiga with 2K Refresh, 128 MB, 64 MB, 32 MB and 16 MB? Could you recommend me where can I buy the right DIMMs with 2K Refresh? Thanks for answer. Last edited by DH; 17 November 2017 at 13:28. Reason: Deleted direct signature |

Joe: I spent hours and hours trying to modify the Sonnet initialisation code to work with the 4K Refresh SIMMs I'd mistakenly bought. Although it was all consistent with the MPC107 spec, it never worked stably. I ended up buying 2K refresh SIMMs and it's been solid ever since. I believe Grelbfarlk has been through a similar process.
My hunch (and it's only that) is that there is a hardware problem with the Sonnet on the Amiga that prevents 4K refresh working. Could be signal noise. Could be power distribution problem. I don't know. But it just doesn't work. How do you know you are buying 2K SIMMs? Ask the seller! That's what I did on a well-known auction site to be absolutely sure I was getting what I wanted.

I stated that 128 and 256 MB do not work. Albeit advertised by Sonnet, the 128 MB sticks we tested in a real Mac also resulted in a no-boot on the real Mac. There are however different revisions of the Sonnet PCI card out there.
I adapted the documentation. |

I tried many different 128MB DIMMs some of which were sold as 4k refresh but were actually 8k. I have a set of 4k 64MB DIMMs which DO work and a friend sent some to one of the people from this thread and those worked for him as well. Curiously these 4k refresh DIMMs don't work in an actual Mac on the Sonnet.
So safe bet is to find 2k 64MB 5V sticks. EDO or not doesn't matter. |
