Algor USB in Mediator setup

[Thomas]

I use a Highway USB in the Mediator PCI 4000 and it works without problems. As flash ROM I use an eFlash4000, though. The Poseidon software works fine from the ROM, I can boot frmo USB drives.

AFAIK none of the threats has been made true yet, neither have Elbox changed the Mediator to reject E3B cards nor has Chris Hodges changed the Poseidon software to reject the Spider.

Bye,
Thomas

Even better than others. My five year old PC can only boot from USB floppy drives, not from any other USB device (like memory sticks or card readers) although I have the latest BIOS. Poseidon can boot from any USB device, even from an MS-DOS formatted memory stick (with the help of FAT95's Boot95). In fact this USB stick is kind of dual-boot: if I stick it into a PC it boots a Windows98 console and if I stick it into an Amiga it boots AmigaOS 3.9 :-)
