Amiga Early Start-up menu

[Vlabguy1]

I was just wondering how intelligent is the Amiga Early Start-up Menu.  Im
curious as I have a CV64, and a SunRize AD516 board and in that menu
it says the boards are working.  I know they are working, but my question is
how does the amiga know they are working..Or is the System just
sensing the cards being present so it assumes the are in working condition??
ie..this might not be telling me much..just that the cards are in the slot..

ahh...ok...got it...that leads me to this question

So does it then know if the Zorro slot is functioning as it should??

[Vlabguy1]

Ahh..but does this then tell me that the Zorro slot is working..??
If my cards are in..the Zorro slot the Early start up tells me they are working
..save to assume the Zorro slot works??  Prob. not.  huh??  

I could still have an issue with my Zorro slots then..
oh well

mmm..This buster chip..what is his function?
I think I may have a 12v loss on the  Z. slots..could this be possible?

no worries..I wish I could answer your question though..
