It's Ralph Babel's OmniSCSI device in a rom adaptater for the GVP scsi controlers.

With that you can use HDs of more than 4 Gb capacity and you will not have any of the transfers problems the GVP controller had. :-)

I have the model for my A2091 and it's great!

Never tryied that, but I don't think so as only the gvpscsi.device is "upgraded", to handle over 4Gb drives you need a filsystem able to do it too, and wb1.3 is too old in my opinion.

But trying it would not cause any harm, you could just have a not working controler, reverting to the old rom would do it to work again in that case :-)

Hi machinehead :-)

>It is trashed I think, but maybe I am doing something wrong?

Not at all :-) it's one of the reason that makes we needed the Guru Rom upgrade, just another bug of the GVPSCSI.device ;-).
