- SYSTEM: A500 1meg chip, Mtec 020i accell. w/4 meg simm, Phoenix expansion
- box for 2 Zorro 2 slots, Supra scsi Word Synch controller, Quantum 105meg
- scsi drive.
-
- When I try to boot off of the HD when the 020 is enabled it will lock the
- system and HD up (Drive light stays on). I can disable the ram and try
- booting with just the 020 and same thing. But when I boot in 68000 mode
- it will boot fine. I used to have a A570 with a AMTRIX SCSI-TV card and
- it worked if I disabled the ram and added it later, and put the Mask
- value lower than the ram mapped at, and set the buffer memory to chip
- only. I changed all of these settings with RD Prep. Now RD Prep will not
- read the drive in any configuration so I can't change those settings in
- the supra software.
-
- I am thinking that the supra is just incompatible with this setup. Anyone
- got a different card they want to trade for this?
-
- Thanks for any solutions/ideas
