Title: Wanted: Owner of a working M.A.S.T. Fireball SCSI Controller
Post by: mkegruber on December 12, 2024, 11:25:16 AM

Team,

I have a M.A.S.T Fireball DMA SCSI Controller, but its not working. I have had someone check the main chip and have been assured its ok, but it appears the 1 or more of the 3 logic chips is not.

I am hoping someone here has a working card and could somehow get me the image from these chips so I could get them replicated locally?

Michael

Hi, from Tassie.
Winuae emulator rom-pack has recently added MAST Fireball roms to it's emulated HDD list. There are two versions - v0.4 and v2.0 (1990) included as two 8kb rom files. If your "Main Chip" is the rom then ok
Otherwise the roms may be able to be split and be transferrable to IC's if you are familiar with the rom burning software.
Roms attached.

@PlatformerZ

I've spoken to Toni of WinUAE about this, and managed to provide him the ROM from my card which was a later version to his. But were unable to source the firmware for the 3 chips on the left of the card.
