Title: TF1260 setup issue
Post by: bradhansen1 on January 03, 2023, 12:13:06 AM

Hi All, Have my TF1260 setup on my A1200 and running well.  Using the on board heide connector for my CF Hard drive. Question,
how do I get that board to recognize the on board ide connector on the mother board? Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Brad Hansen

How do you mean? So you can see 2 harddrives in workbench both the TF and onboard IDE?

Yes! That is exactly what I mean. You are supposed to be able to do that with this board.

Im sure that aslong as you have ensured no partition on the drive connected to the A1200's onboard IDE has been set as bootable and none of its partiton names conflict with any on the EHIDE of the TF then it should show up in WB once booting is complete.

Hi, you are right and that's exactly what I did. Booted from a Floppy, connected a blank CF card and created
new Partitions. Thanks
