The major culprit is the 3.1 Roms' IDE seek delay


Well, it's IDE scan delay, which can be upto 30 secs with 3.1 IIRC. Anyway, here's the fix:

no4000ide.lha
IDE_Killer.lha (with a pic)

Yes, I have that hack too.
It has increased the speed of my boot time noticeably, however there's still a largeish delay. I guess CSPPC simply must take its time, and that's it.

Probably. The settings you use (1 LUN for the used unit, NO LUNs for other units) seems optimal. At least that is what was the fastest with my BPPC SCSI.

However, at least with BPPC SCSI you could also tune the SCSI reset delay, I had it set to 1 second IIRC.

@x56h34
bk_noide.lha BlizKick module disables scsi.device

Maybe this will do?

If this is what I think it is, it is not necessary for a Cyberstorm.

BlizKick does a lot more than just maprom, it can patch the ROM before mapping (fix some bugs for example). Also you can get rid of some extra reboots with AOS 3.5/3.9 + some other patch.
