Just wondering if there was ever a fix made so you could do this on an Amiga.  I remember helping someone out on another thread and reading an IDEfix patch that said it made so you could USE SD cards, but it didn't specify to what extent.

Anyone have dealings with this?

The scsi card readers i sell will do hotswap(except for the card you boot from-any card is bootable on good controllers) the other 4 slots can be hotswapped. the controller must support LUNS and Reselection.

so for example you can boot off the cf slot, then use the SD slot to hotswap or memstik,smart media,or the pcmcia slot with cf adapter.

This works on A4000t scsi, cyberstorm scsi and the fastlane scsi,i haven't had time to try hotswapping on the 2091(the readers do work on it w/6x rom and up.. 7 is recommended.)also works on the warpengine.

Mike

This doesn't apply to the onboard ide,and everyone probably knows this but cf's are hotswappable on the A1200/600 pcmcia port with a pcmcia->cf adapter when using CFD.lha from aminet.Make sure u have the reset fixes/patches installed etc.
