AUTOBOOT problems
Re: AUTOBOOT problems
The one that mine's in is Rev 6A, but I have other revisions I could test in if you think that is where the problem lies?

I can reproduce this exact thing on my Amiga 1000 by using the *wrong* manager. There is one for DF0: and one for DF1: in the zipfile. If I use the one for DF0: (which is the one I am supposed to use, as my HxC is connected directly to the internal floppy connection) the manager freezes *without any errors*
BUT, if I try the manager for DF1: (it is not the one I am supposed to use, but I tried it anyway to see what happens) I get the LBA error that you are getting.
Maybe that reveals something? In any case, I cannot get the manager to work on the A1000 at all (except for title screen and credits)
Re: AUTOBOOT problems
I sent it to your email I guess.. I'll make a new one and send it again. I'll try it out on other revisions too.Jeff wrote:Yes please try it on other amiga.TroelsDK wrote:The one that mine's in is Rev 6A, but I have other revisions I could test in if you think that is where the problem lies?

Re: AUTOBOOT problems
Something really strange is going on... I'm glad I'm not the only one having troubles with this, this suggests some common error on the board or in the firmware...eightbit wrote:TroelsDK wrote: It boots up and goes to the "welcome" menu, but then a long beep is heard and the message "DIRECT ACCESS LBA:00000000 08" is displayed.

Re: AUTOBOOT problems
Read again its issue : the software hang a way before the floppy interface access -> No point at all with the firmware or the board...TroelsDK wrote:Something really strange is going on...

This may be a software compatibility problem with some chipset revision... or just a defective amiga board (already happened before...)
I still waiting for your board revision...

Re: AUTOBOOT problems
Exactly, and the problem is probably there. I have a debug version if you want (with more state output).eightbit wrote: Or in the code for the manager software.

it is done ?TroelsDK wrote: I'll try it out on other revisions too.
Re: AUTOBOOT problems
Yes! That would be good. Maybe we can get to the bottom of the issue with debug. Send it to me in PM (or a link) and I will try it tonight as soon as I get home.Jeff wrote:Exactly, and the problem is probably there.

Re: AUTOBOOT problems
Ok, I will look out for it. Thanks again for your help!Jeff wrote: i will send you this by email.
Re: AUTOBOOT problems
Ok, I just ran the debug version. It froze as well at this attached screen. Any ideas?

Re: AUTOBOOT problems
Ok for sure you have a jumper setting problem : the drive is not selected by the software so you don't use DS0 as it should...
Can you a picture of the jumper ? Are you using a twisted floppy ribbon?

Re: AUTOBOOT problems
Do you think it is the cable or jumper setting? Why does everything else work just fine?
