AmigaKit SCSI2SD

Yes, IDEFix is not necessary with your setup. The 5.x scsi2sd has a max speed of around 1MB/sec.

For >4GB support, three things are needed: a 64-bit-aware filesystem, a 64-bit-aware scsi.device, and a 64-bit-aware HDToolbox (or similar prep tool). PFS works for the filesystem. HDToolbox and scsi.device work out-of-the-box if you're using 3.5, 3.9, 3.1.4, or 3.2.

Otherwise you need patches. It's been ages since I've used it, but I don't think IDEFix one of them.

If you don't want to mess around with patches, scsi2sd has a config feature to artificially limit the size of the SD card, so you can make it appear to your Amiga that you've only got a 4GB drive.

Cheers Matt. Im running OS3.9 with BB1 ,2 & the unofficial 3 & 4. Have ordered 3.2 with a set of Roms which should arrive sometime next week. Plan is to clean install the 3.2 roms and OS 3.2.

You’re in good shape, then.

As long as your boot partition is below the 4GB barrier your current setup is fine. Once you get the 3.2 ROMs installed you can put the boot partition anywhere you want.
