It turns out what I thought for the longest time was a PSU issue was to do with a SCSI drive in my A1200 tower with A1260. There is a drive here that, if I boot from, causes the Amiga to sit with a black screen for days. I can boot from a blank drive and access the other drive fine, but cannot boot from it.
I booted to blank, and accessed c/ on the "bad" drive fine to try and copy its contents to blank drive to try boot from it. Sadly, blank boot has libs too old to run Dopus. So, I did a CLI: COPY dh1: dh0: ALL on it, and the 1.5GB of data is taking HOURS to copy. Mods 200-300K in size are taking 20 secs.
Why?
How can COPY be that inefficient on a NO S-S boot? Still copying. Thanks.
