Can start OS on A1200
« on: June 28, 2014, 02:08:52 PM »
I created a CF Card with classic workbench.
 It works great on winuae.
 but when I try to run on my A1200, the hard drive light stays on and nothing else  happens.
 
 any ideas what the problem is?
 Thanks, Peter

4gb. , split between dh0 and dh1
 I built the image using the a1200 3.1 rom.
 I hope I don't have to start all over :-(

sorry, the cf card boots ok in winuae. it's when I try to use it in the A1200 that I have trouble.

the amiga has a aca1232 card - could that be the problem ?

I got it working by  reseating  the CF cable.
 But when I place the keyboard and  outer case  , the HD light stays solid.
 I think something is touching and causing a short ?
 There is no heat shield. Someone said to put a piece of cardboard under the HD.
