I allready have a legal 3.1 Rom-image (Amiga Forever) on my PC. Will I be able to transfer that to the Kickflash and use that?


Probably not.  The rom images included with Amiga Forever are specially encrypted, and only work with WinUAE.  Even then, I'm not sure the licensing allows you to use them elsewhere.

Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

Off topic (but then again, what was the topic here?).  Does the Algor/Romulous really boot before the drives are spinned/scanned?  I thought there was no way around this.  (ie. the system has to scan devices looking for boot information (priority, etc.).  Does the Algor totally bypass this including early startup?  Or does it just look like another bootable device.

Back on topic.  I just ordered a Kickflash from Vesalia.  I can give a mini-review when it gets here if the OP wishes.

@Cyberus

Did you bother to read all the threads you state tjaoz is attacking in?  If you had, you'd see that in the "Subway USB Availability?" thread (mine BTW), Michael from E3B directly attacked tjaoz without provocation or reason.  Tjaoz never even posted in the thread.

As was the thread posted by Acill "X-Surf II, what a scam...".  Tjaoz is mentioned by E3B buddies, as well as off topic post slagging Elbox by voxel, yet tjaoz never said a peep.  Also E3B plugs their product in this post.  Is this not exactly what you're accusing tjaoz of doing?

It goes both ways here.  I see Red doing it, tjaoz doing it, and E3B doing it.  It appears some people just don't like Elbox and tjoaz so they take everything he says as untrue and an attack when in fact most is perfectly correct.  (For instance, buddha vs. FastATA speed comparison in the "3 new products..." thread).

Please don't put me in this category. I have never jumped into an Elbox thread trying to promote a product I sell.


Never?  Sure about that?  Maybe you just don't like to admit it.  1 minute of searching and I found one.  

"Are the Elbox tower and mediator products worth it?"

Cough..


Although, maybe you're not as forward as Chris and the E3B Buddies, you are quick to attack tjaoz's freedom of speech just as you are exersizing yours.

@Michael

I understand your position, and the frustration you must feel.  But, what I was commenting about were quotes like...

Quote
P.S.: I guess we will see some comments from Mr. Rat aka Tjaoz aka ElBugs here on this message... treat them with the necessary attitude


...in threads that have nothing to do with tjaoz or Elbox at all.  So, in fact while complaining about the problem, you're adding to it by posting such nonsense.  I agree you should be able to correct misinformation as it appears.  But, have you ever heard the saying "Don't feed the trolls"?
