GVP Combo030 and Philips CDD3600
« on: September 05, 2004, 08:35:55 PM »
I'm reviving my Amiga 2000 and currently in the process of adding a CD-recorder I have lying around. It's connected to a GVP combo 030 (along with 2 scsi HD's). All the SCSI stuff works, except for the CD drive. The first step (i think) should be that it is recognized in a SCSI scan. I ran gvpscsic and it listed the two disks and the hostadapter.

I've search for a while now, but cannot find something similair.

Technotes:
CDD3600 philips SCSI cd-writer
GVP Combo 030 with 5Mb mem (rom version 3.5 if I read that correct)
The drives are on SCSI address 1 and 3, the adapter is on 7
and the CD drive should be on 4.

Oh, the drive seems to work, as I've jumpered it for termination (it's the last on the cable) and the rest of
the chain works (I also came working out of a PC just this week).

Can anyone shine light on this one?

As an extra:
I have a separate GVP scsi controller card lying around too.
Will it help to connect the CDrom to that card and using gvpscsi.device on disk just for this controller (or will turbo-card also take charge of this board)?

More info:

kick 3.1/OS3.1

Should I use HDToolbox to enable the drive? I thought that at least the scsi scan should show the drive, otherwise HDToolbox will not see the device either.

I don't have access to HDToolbox here, I'll post the results tomorrow.

Ok, HDToolbox also sees nothing. If I try gvpscsictrl to rescan the bus (with the -s or -m option to wait for slow devices or missing media) it hangs for 30 seconds.

I didn't find the time to try the second controller. Does the ROM version on the board make any difference or shouldn't this matter.
