Mediator and MorphOS

[Boot_WB]

I seem to recall reading a thread somewhere (may be on the mediator yahoo site, may be on MOS site) about elbox suggesting testing non-dma cards (ie rtl8029 ethernet) in the mediator under MOS to see what would happen.

Don't know if anyone has done it, and I'm currently waiting for such a card to arrive from a slow-delivering ebay merchant  so I'll test it in my mediator-bvision setup when I get the chance (prob weekend).

If you see some sort of mushroom cloud rising over Sheffield (a la "Threads") you'll know what it is. :-D

It took a couple of weeks for the RTL8029 to arrive, after which time I had a host of other problems running bvision and bppc.

Plus, in trying to repair a B1240 which I'd bought as non-working I managed to fry my a1200 motherboard, although I didn't realise this at the time - a couple of weeks later the graphics started to corrupt, then got yellow screen of bad chipram on startup, then I couldn't even boot up workbench from the hard drive.

I never got around to trying, and have totally disassembled the 1200/ppc setup at the moment.  Sorry.
