Remove Subway Install Deneb

Question:

Do I need to remove Posiedon S/W before booting in Rescue mode??

[amiwalker]

Thanks for the info.

I just wanted to be sure before I started to swap things out. I have my A3000D power supply pretty much maxed out with the cards installed:

DKB 3128 with 128MB ram
Catweasel Zorro S Class - 1 IDE HDD
X-Surf II with Subway attached
GVP Spectrum GFX card
WarpEngine 040 40mhz
1 SCSI HDD

Since I have only 4 Zorro slots, I will remove the Catweasel card (and the IDE HDD) to make room for the Deneb.

Then remove the Subway card.

This should make my system more stable than it currently is now.

Again, many thanks!

Just thought of one more thing. Do I need to force Zorro II on the DKB 3128 in order to use the Deneb at HIGH speed?

I have Buster 11 installed on the motherboard.

Followup:

I tried to install the Deneb with only removing the Catweasel card and switching the IDE HDD to port 1 on the X-Surf II

This resulted in NOT being able to see and thus install the DenebInstall virtual drive.

I then removed the DKB3128 card from the Zorro slot and switched the power back on. I then was able to see and install the S/W.

I then removed the jumper from the Rescue location and moved it to the Spare position. and re-installed the DKB3128.

Machine would not boot, no errors, just a blank screen.

I then removed the DKB3128 again and setup the Deneb for DMA via the driver.

I then tried to access my flash drive memory stick, only to find that the file structure was slightly corrupted.

I then went to PIO mode via driver, OK now.

Why can't I run with DMA mode?
