Ok here is an update....

I installed an updated version of compactflash.device (from aminet) and now the Amiga detects the card (Yesssss!!!!!)

Two remaining problems:

1. The card is not detected if I switch on the Amiga with the CF in the slot. If I do, I have to remove and re-insert.

2. I created a number of partitions (on the PC) on the CF, but the Amiga only sees the first partition.

Any ideas how to fix 1 and 2

Thanks!

as stated in my last post you need a reset signal its missing on all A1200 motherboard,you have to add this in hardware but i think there also a software that can reset the PCMCIA port.

But with another CF (512MB), it works even if I boot the A1200 with the card inserted....

insert the card and turn your A1200 on you will not see the CF card.

if you pull the card out & then reinsert the card without a reset the amiga will then see the card regardless of what type of card is in the slot.

a hardware or software is required to fix the problem.
