A600GS & A1200NG / A1200NG and an SSD Drive
« Last post by fasih_rehman on March 18, 2026, 10:08:41 PM »
I have a 512GB SSD. The disk has been partitioned on my Linux box to have 2 x~250GB partitions formatted to EXT4. I have connected the drive to the internal USB header using 2xUSB-A SATA adaptor.
The LED on the adaptor is on. The drive is in the HD bracket in the designated space on the 1200NG board.

I boot the A1200NG and go to 'Import ROM' the only volumes it can see is the 2nd partition which is empty. The first partition does not appear.
If I boot into AmiBench, I get a drive icon for the 2nd partition again and I can browse it, but it is empty.

The first partition has my ADFs and ROMS for 3.2 and a bunch of WHDLoad games, HDFs and ADFs. My objective is to create a custom system with 3.2, ideally I want to place it on the SSD.

What have I missed out?

Have I setup the first partition incorrectly?

Can I place files or a complete custom system setup on the SSD and the add them to the launcher?

TIA

Mutants Are Live - and These Guys Are Way Too Smart!
https://drive.proton.me/urls/VVFRQQD1Y8#7o3xEZn32M61

Today was mutant?testing day.
And let me tell you...these guys are NOTHING like the robots.
Robots explode. Robots break. Robots accept their fate.
Mutants? Mutants plot.

These sneaky creatures move between cover, switch positions, and shoot from angles I didn't even know existed.
I swear one of them looked at me like, "Oh, you thought this was going to be easy?"

I'm developing this solo, but these mutants are making me feel like I need a full tactical team behind me.
They flank, they hide, they reposition - basically they play smarter than I do, and I'm the one who coded them.

But hey, challenge accepted.

As far as I know A600gs, and probably A1200ng  as well uses Amiberry-lite which is still at version 5.x
Also I suspect they use the 32 bit version, and it looks looks like Amiberry 8 is targeted at 64 bit only.

You are correct that we use the amiberryy-lite fork, with our own modifications, but we certainly use a 64 bit build, why would we not on 64bit hardware.

Ok, all but finished with MP3 menu player. Just needs a tiny bit more tweaking.
I will make it so, it scans music folder for any .mp3's and then randomly auto plays them all.

Then Im back to CPU, EVENTS, COPPER and BLITTER, honest.
Wierd side effect, I had to split decoding and playback. This actually made PSPUAE faster.

Blue tooth is my main way of using audio with the A600GS and apart from an occasional crackle it seems to work OK here. Bluetooth audio in general ain't great thou and prone to interference.

Well, I use BT Audio on all other systems (also on SoCs) without problems, why is this a problem on this board then ?

I work on dark screens all the time, can't even find the white half the time, unfortunately there is no other way to stop the issue at present, and the leak  is far more interfering than the white dot ...
Of course, but it´s still annoying  ;D Guess there are people more affected by it then you are  :)

Working on it. AHI performance  is testing very well under it, amongst other things....

Looking forward to that milestone, thanks for the heads up  8)

Not seen this problem any particular site that causes it? Where do you see the error message.? THis error might indicate a windo open request of somekind I need to intercept.

No, it happens on random occasions, mostly after downloading some files and already closed AmiBrowser ... I will reproduce it the next days and make some screenshots ...

Testing the first enemies - time to wipe out some robots!
https://drive.proton.me/urls/VVFRQQD1Y8#7o3xEZn32M61

I've started testing the first robot enemies in the game.
It's that glorious phase where things explode, systems break, and I figure out what actually works.

I'm developing this solo, but trust me - I'm ready to wipe out some robots and push these tests to the limit.

Been a bit distracted.

AGA still was giving me issues, spent all Saturday trying to fix issue. Finally got the issue I kept hitting 14 years ago sorted. AGA now works 100% perfect.

I then ended up getting side tracked. Spent all day Sunday implementing MP3 player for menu. Basically as we have paula on ME CPU. When in menu, the thread keeps running the sound output, buffering no audio. So as its still running, I thought, why not switch the inputs while in menu to ME MP3 hardware decoder. Got all code sorted, however not working. Ended up debugging til very late. As I was about to shut down PC, I found out, we have to start a few kernel modules on PSP, namely the one that deals with ME MP3 play back.

Well at 2am this morning, finally got MP3 playback working.
Its still rough around the edges. It seems to play ok, through the paula output stuff. Just have a spike around every 2 secs of playback, nothing major. Needs buffer tweaks.

So now, when pspuae runs. Paula does all the amiga sound. You enter menu, then it internally switches from paula to ME Hardware MP3 decoder. Exit menu, it switches back to paula. Its working really well.

Once, I have it perfect, will switch back to CPU, blitter and copper stuff. This sidetrack was very frustrating, as there are loads of different pspsdk's with different headers. So it made it challenging, but fun.

Fun side note, ME CPU also does different formats. So could tweak it to accept, WAV, ATRAC3, WMA. Could even use it to play videos in the background of menu.
