- Hello world,
-
- after upgrading from OS1.3 to 3.1 I can no longer boot from HD using my
- KRONOS SCSI controller. However, I can use my HD if I boot from FD, install
- the HD with 'devinstall' (from the 'KRONOS fast install'-disk) and mount it.
- Obviously something is going wrong while autoconfiguring the controller
- with an old bootROM under the new OS.
- To be sure that there's no problem with my other cards here are all the
- components in my system:
-
- - A2000B Rev.4.2
- - A2630 4MB (with new ROMs for 3.1, dated 01/15/91 18:57)
- - KRONOS SCSI-controller (on the board it says 'MCM COPYRIGHT 1989
- B. RICKETTS'
- and on the boot-EPROM (2764, 8KB) there's a sticker '5087')
- software delivered with the board e.g.
- - inquir v 3.5
- - installer v 1.2
- - setautoboot v.3.2 (didn't help me)
-
- - PicassoII 2MB
- - A2386
-
- The system worked fine before the upgrade so I think my problems are due to
- the old firmware in the bootROM. Who is sucessfully using this controller
- under 3.1 and/or can give me any hints on upgrading the controller software
- and firmware?
- TIA,
- Carsten Schuer
