Yes, you should be able to force it to UDMA by e.g. "setenv sii0680_xfer GGGG" followed by "saveenv".

This is in UBoot, AFAIR there is no NVSetVar command for the XE to use from AmigaOS (only for the Sams).

The various env vars and their features are documented in SYS:Documentation/IDE/sii0680ide_dev.doc (and other documents in that drawer).

Best regards,

My XE G4 has been out of action for years now, but back when it worked, I did use a Radeon 9250 in the AGP slot with no obvious problems. My machine had not been "fixed", it was in the original state.

And I never heard that it should be a problem to use the AGP slot in that situation - but that doesn't necessarily mean it isn't :-).

IIRC, I used an SiI0680 and an SiI3114, and also the internal ports for CD and a boot HD (the internal ports of course in PIO mode).

Best regards,

Niels
