A3000 + Deneb problems

[Darrin]

Great news.  Let us know if you end up inserting any new hardware into the Deneb and whether it works or not.

Do you have the USB stack running at startup or are you having to start it manually through Trident each time?

This might sound silly, but when I first booted the Deneb in rescue mode to access the virtual drive containing the install files, I couldn't see it either - until I realsied that it was off the bottom of the screen!  A quick rearangement of the icons on the screen and it popped up under my hard drive icon.

(BTW, I've got Easynet working with some shares set up on the win pc, love not having to burn a CD for 2 files to transfer over to the Amiga!)

***EDIT***
Put it back in the startup-sequence an no dice, it still hangs...

What seems to work is if I delete all the configs, remove the device, save... Thne reboot, got to ENV: and ENVARC: and delete the Stackloader file then run Trident, choose the device, save put the device online and then re-plug in the usb devices...

Works a treat, but the next time I boot up I have to go through the same thing again.. I installed the latest version of Poseidon hoping that would fix it but no go...
(however, if I boot with cpu caches disbled, then everything is fine!)

Damn.  Strange problem.

Do you have a spare hard drive?  If so, do a clean basic OS3.1 install, copy over the latest "installer" to the C draw, install MUI and then install the Deneb siftware while in rescue mode along with FAT95.

See if your Deneb card works OK then.
