DJBase's A1000 Kickstart adapter A1000 mobo jumper question

[mousemiki]

Hello, I've the similar problem with kick 3.1 and kickstart adapter on A1000 rev 6.
When I use the kickstart 1.3 or 2.04 the A1000 boting up and all is ok, when I use the kickstart 3.1 the A1000 no boot.
Have you resolved this problem on your A1000? How?
Thank you for any reply.

What's this method? Please write the link if exist, or write the method.
Thank you, Michele

I have seen this method, very problematic and impossible to use in my a1000 with Phase5 accellerator.

> Maybe the 3.1 chip needed to be jumpered/pin isolated like is done on Rev 5 A500 boards? Seems like the adapter should handle that, but who knows.
 
I have connected pin 1 with pin 31, as kickstart 3.1 instruction for the A500 rev 3 and rev. 5, but the A1000 no boot, this is not the resolution.

This is very well :-) but if is possible I mount a very kickstart 3.1 on A1000.

Yep, on a Rev. 6 mobo - those directions are either full of shit OR you need to do the A500 (rev. 5) Kickstart thing and lift/solder pins.
 
Personally, I think the directions are full of shit. You do NOT cut the traces where the 'X' is on that ASCII schematic. The machine simply will not boot, even after you reverse what you've done. That "schematic" assumes there's already a jumper between the pads - which there wasn't on my machine. W1-W4 as pictured in the destructions, was how my A1000 natively was.!

 
The traces are on the back of the board, the rev 6 is similar to A1000 with piggyboard, not is a very problem to cut two traces and add a two 3pin for w1-w4 and select what connection use, and the kickstart adapter go very well with this istructions, but only with the 1.2 1.3 and 2.04 kickstart, no working with 3.1 kickstart :-(

Hello, as I have wrote, the (scarce) instructions with the kickstart adapter are ok, no great problem to cut on the back of the mainboard two trace and solder three + three pins to set W2-W4, and I've resolved the kick3.1 problem. The autor of kickstart adapter have forgotten to connect pin 31 to 5vcc, simple connect pin 31 to pin 21 and voilà the kickstart 3.1 turn in all its splendor.
