Or if you want to use SCSI, I highly recommend buying a KickFlash. It will allow you to use a modified 3.1 ROM with no scsi.device which effectively disable the on-board IDE controller, thus removing the startup delay.

I tried to build one of those IDE killers myself but I could never get it working. You can also contact DJBase and he can make them.

I tried to build one for my A1200 and then for my A4000. I couldn't get either of them to work. The resistors I used were defnitely the correct values and definitely connected to the correct pins. Maybe I used the wrong type of resistor (there are yellow and blue ones, right?)
