IDE port on GVP A3001
« on: May 25, 2006, 05:15:20 AM »
The BBoAH says that some kind of timing problem breaks compatibility with most IDE drives. Sure enough, I tried three different brands without success (although it does work with the 80MB drive that came with it). Any fix for this or is it just something to be avoided?

http://babel.org/amiga/ has some utilities and ROM images
for this card

My card is running at 50MHz so it's possible at least. Have
you tried any speeds between 25 and 50? or different jumper
settings maybe?

I guess there are two different RAM boards, I have the one
which takes 64-pin GVP SIMMs and it can go up to 32MB.

The page with the jumper settings seems to indicate that u34 is the boot ROM for the IDE. Here's the dump http://www.hyakushiki.net/junk/gvp-u34 it's a 27256. I don't know what the other ROMs are for (fastkick??)
