Title: WIP : new flashing tool for my lovely BlizzardPPC 060
Post by: Cosmos Amiga on September 27, 2015, 02:20:36 PM

Work In Progress flashing tool version to get new firmware via software without any soldering for the BlizzardPPC 060 !

The little video : https://youtu.be/pTH1MmyJdsw


Actually, the ppc.library v46.35 (PowerUP) is gone.

I still have a little issue with the second 512 Kb Kickstart hunk ($E0) : this area is not available...

So today, I removed the 68060.library v46.7 and the little 68040.library from the firmware, but still $E0 not ok with the 68060.library v46.7 on the CF...

My physical Kickstart 3.9 is built with the DummyCDStrap into, and the exec rom scanlist is good !


Any ideas welcome !

So this would allow a simple software firmware update similar to the way as we used to get them during the phase 5 era? Neat - well done.
