Help requested OS4 FastATA MKII
« on: February 19, 2008, 04:03:42 PM »
Hi,
I've got a problem to install my FasATA MKII under OS4 and found a website where someone had the same problem but unfortunately it is written in polish, could someone please translate this text:

d). FastATA

Działa sterownik do kontrolera FastATA. Można dodać go do sekwencji startowej systemu. Niestety zwraca komunikat:
***Polecenie "ata3.driver" zakończyło działanie nie zwalniając sygnałów 8000000!

którego nie potrafiłem się pozbyć. Nie przeszkadza to jednak w starcie systemu.
Osiągi dla dysku - ok. 4 MB/s (PPC 200 MHz). Dla porównania pod AmigaOS 3.9 (040/33 MHz) - ok. 4.7 MB/s. Oczywiście sterownik pod AmigaOS 4.0 działa pod emulatorem JIT 68k - Petunia.

Innym problemem związanym z FastATA 1200 jest nie działanie systemu plików dla napędu CD (Kickstart/CDFileSystem) gdy sterownik ata3.driver jest aktywny. Rozwiązaniem jest stworzenie mounlisty CD0 (pobierz i ewentualnie zmień Unit) w katalogu Devs/DOSDrivers i wyłączenie automatycznego montowania napędu CD w pliku Kickstart/diskboot.config (ustaw - scsi.device 8 1).

Thx  :-)

Hello,

My problem is that when i launch the ata3.driver, after a couple of second i've gt a message telling me that the program terminated because of an error in 8000000 adress, that's all i have, and after that, OS4 is still running but I have no more access to drives content.

@phantom
Because of the error message in its sentence (***Polecenie "ata3.driver" zakończyło działanie nie zwalniając sygnałów 8000000!) It really looks like mine :-)

@Vulture
Yeah, I added the AllowBasePageAccess in the Startup-Sequence but not the automatic load of the ata3.driver because I wanting to be sure it run fine. So I launched it manually after booting OS4, but it crashed :-(

@TiredOfLife

Yes, that will be the last solution, but i'd like to make this one function if possible. Many people still have their MKII or MKI and dont want to upgrade or have not the money, so if there is a solution...
Does MKII drivers could work with MKII ?

I wrote to elbox directly to see if they have a solution as nobody seems to have the same problem as mine

I did not try the automatic loading because I wanted to see if it worked before beeing unable to boot :-)

I installed OS4 without the FASTATA, with a minimal os3.1 partition and another one containing OS4 CD files
