Help !! No scsi.device on A1200 PPC+ 233/060

[Matt_H]

Darn Z4 and PowerFlyer! I'm grappling with similar problems at the moment, but I can offer the following:
1. The PowerFlyer replaces the Amiga's scsi.device with its own. If there are devices on both of them, one will be renamed to 2nd.scsi.device
2. My Z4 board hates my Blizzard060 (Not all Zorro cards can be detected), and refuses to work at all with a PowerFlyer ZIV connected.
3. I think (not certain, though) that you *must* use AllegroCDFS with CDs on the PowerFlyer. Asim is, unfortunately, vastly out of date now. Replace your CD0 DOSDriver with one from the PowerFlyer disk.

To be honest, I'd recommend switching completely over to SCSI on the BlizzPPC, or putting up with motherboard IDE. Then you can get the BVision back.

If I can be of any more help, let me know.

RE: PowerFlyerZ4

So... the 1230 doesn't work either? Hmmmm... I'm starting to suspect serious design flaws...

RE: Asim

Ah. So it is supposed to be compatible with a PowerFlyer. My mistake. Don't get me wrong, though. I love Asim, and I used it for years, but it just bombed on me with OS3.5. What version are you using? I maxed out at 3.7, but I heard they went to 3.10. If I could find 3.10, I might bring it back into service.

RE: Burning

I get about 5.3x burn speed with MakeCD through an IDE-Fix-97 interface, whichI believe is on par with the motherboard. Certainly not all that good, but usable. Then again, I don't do much burning.

No, I don't think it's the power supply either. When I was trying to get a similar setup working, I had a brand new 300W AT powersupply connected to the Z4 board. No dice. :-(
