Well here what works right now. Still no DOM.
Hopefully I can get something newer, bigger and faster soon on the go that works.  A1k has some good reading there on this.
Scsi sd card is faster according to sysinfo.

What I don't get is, why didn't the DOM just boot (to at least one of the included OS's)? Or, are you supposed to install one of the included OS's to the DOM from the DOM (based on what version of KS Rom you have? Or, is the included DOM not intended to be bootable? I don't have one of these new iComp products with the included OS scheme.

@lost_loven

Don't ya just love using a HDD the size of a blimp on a new micro-sized product? It took me an hour to dig up a 5.25" IDE HDD from my rubble box to try out on the Zorro4IDE card! :roflmao: And it STILL didn't work! HA!

I assumed (I guess I shouldn't) that the DOM auto boots on the card, you use its installer for the workbench of choice (mine would be 3.1) and once in stalled remove the jumper and the DOM and away you go!

I wish I could even get that far but booting into my 3.9 install and using hdtoolbox there to see the drives (which I went into my COLD storage and rummaged and dug out and defrosted just to see and make sure the card part of it at least works!

I am going out tomorrow and see if I can get a ide2sata adapter (instead of waiting for fleabay) and see at least if I can get my 2.5 inch 500 gig sata drive working.

Feeling very disappointed!

OK, so the included DOM is not meant to be a production drive? Just an OS installer? Maybe get another DOM for a production drive.

I did the EXACT same thing the other day! I shoulda took a pic - what a mess-o-cables! DIDN"T work either! :( And the 2.5" drive spun up and everything! I get nuthin from HDToolBox or HDInstTools. You will probably have better luck though since you can at least see your old IDE 5.25" drives.

Me too! I've had my Buddha Phoenix card for like 2 years now! HAHAHAHA! I know it's not defective though.
So, I went out & bought another bare bones A2K (arrived today) just for testing so I wouldn't have to keep tearing apart the A2K in my sig! I hope the A2K test rig will help solve some Zorro2 card problems though.

The card includes a quick setup on paper. It says you leave the DOM in port 1, connect an IDE cable with HDD to the other port and care about the power jumper (!). then the DOM will boot, but it has a priority of -1 for not messing up your usual boot sequence.
Sometimes you have to check your already attached drive with hdtoolbox, check for LastDevice or whatever it is called these days. Normally hdtb will mention that "something has changed, do you want to save recent changes" iirc.

Oh boy.  I was going to post an unrelated question about something I was hoping to setup on my 3000 after I had the Buddha setup.  Hmmm.  Maybe I better be sure my new Buddha is working on my system first. Hahah.   Film at 11.  :)

Found another drive today. (out stock at local store for adaptor).. It is 160 gig drive but 127 is seen. Really would like that DOM to work..  At ak1 site looks like Jens found a fix. So guess we wait till something (page 22 I believe)  is official...

Yep.  Y'all got me to take a look at my card.  No DOM boot love here.  I tried quite a few different configs... no cards... some cards all cards...

I had bought a 32GB DOM to use with it.
With the "boot" DOM in IDE 2, and the new 32GB in IDE 1...
I tried with jumper 2 on.  I tried with jumper 2 off and power connected to the new DOM...
no love

I'm also using 3.9 (3000 w/3640 super buster 11/7.1 Daughterboard)
Tried running the Flash update tool.  That didn't work either.  It said it found the card but... Error 20.  
will find that thread.
fun!

thanks for kickstarting (!) me into action here.

"industrial CF cards" is pretty much a scam btw.
No, not really.... There are some CF cards made with industrial use in mind. Some CNC machinery can run programs of CF cards (with proper equipment, SD cards as well) and some cnc machines even run os from a cf card. or close resembling cf card nand.....
And then there is someone trying to explain the difference...

Funny how things have gone from: "IDE4Zorro sucks because it has a lot of issues, but salvation is here in the form of new Buddha cards", to: "The Buddha cards have issues as well" :)

Anyway, here are couple of things to have in mind:

1. For using CF cards with the Buddha, the driver probably has to be patched by using this: http://aminet.net/package/driver/media/IDEFix_patches
After this is done, it should then be flashed to the Buddha card.

2. If IDEfix is to be used with the IDE4Zorro board + CF card, it probably needs to be patched as well.

3. Before testing various harddisks on the Amiga, it might be a good idea to wipe the drive clean by using DiskPart (or something similar) first.

4. As the storage capacity of harddisks have increased over the years, so have the power requirements. Is the PSU of the Amiga really able to power large harddisks? Maybe it can be a good idea to test them by using an external PSU first?


As for patching IDEfix or BuddhaIDE in a really easy way, there is the IDE-fix 97 AIO packs: http://rhz1.comlu.com/miscstuff/idefix97_aio.htm
Which can be downloaded from here: https://app.box.com/s/uuyi3kka5smiogq6vwsmn21folkxy983

@PanterHZ

This looks like some good info here! Thanks! :) I'm getting the A2K that arrived yesterday all cleaned up and will be ready to go back to testing and setting up my Buddha Phoenix and IDE4Zorro board. I'll be working from a real nice, uncluttered, clean A2K so should be fun!

@Blatboy
We'll get thru this bud! :)

@lost_loven
Jens will get it sorted... He always does! :)

The IDE4Zorro board - we'll see? :rolleyes: [strike]But I did get that kinda working in the A2K in my sig (has lots of memory stomping cards in it).[/strike]
