Title: CD32 promodule HDD problem
Post by: BadMojo on December 02, 2005, 12:56:22 AM

Hello

I recently bought Promodule for my CD32, and I've got a problem with mounting harddisk to it. I made 2 partitions and installed workbench under WINuae. Then i fitted the drive to promodule but it doesn't work. Console stucks on black screen (but it happens also without hdd - maybe someone know why), and when i push reset, it goes to the main cd32 screen (this with so many colors). What i'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance for all advices.

ps. hdd: quantum fireball 3 gb.

I originally installed mine by booting from my orignal 3.1 disks via an Amiga floppy attacked to my SX-1.
from there I formatted the harddrive.

The problem is, that wb doesn't see the hd. But i found software that converts disks to be usable with promodule. Its horribly slow (20% after 2h :/) but i think it will help. Thanks anyway :)

I've still got a problem :/. Disk had booted few times, but now is the same situtation - after switching power on, orange led shines and the screen is black for about 20 seconds. Then it goes to the cd32 main screen. What should i do ? Maybe the module is broken?
