Battdisk and AccessX IDE

[alexh]

Looking at the descriptions, you may have trouble if the BattDisk is fully populated with 8 megs of ram since the 2000 only has 8MB of space to configure everything in.

Battdisk is not memory mapped and so does not suffer from this.

It's an NVRAM hard drive. Plus it has a maximum RAM of 2Mbytes. It's pretty useless.

The AccessX board is also pretty useless if the ROM is v626 or above

1 . I remove all the cards, and insert the accessX Ide into a Zorro Slot.
2 . Boot from install disk of workbench 3.1
3 . run HdToolbox and nothing recognized.

What i can do?

Did you try the AccessX installation floppy disk?

It says in the readme on the AccessX installation disk :

2nd Should you be in possession of HDToolBox you need to start it the following shell command: "Hdtoolbox harddisk1.device"

A guy posted some pictures of a working AccessX 2000 over on Amibay last month.
