About 3 months ago I purchased a A4060DT through Ebay... I got lucky I think because I didn't put in a very high bid but still ended up winning the auction. Ah well...
Ever since I've occasionally tried to get the accelerator working, just never put any real time in it until yesterday. I took off al jumpers and used Greg Donner's page to set them all as I thought they should be. Now finally SCSI worked, auto booting worked and I could actually hear the SCSI disk (2GB Seagate USCSI drive) being accessed. But the system always freezed. First I needed to discover that it won't work with my IDE-CF installed, so I took it out. Now there is a long delay on boot up as the Amiga frantically tries to do something silly with IDE... I need to get a terminator for that.
After playing around with the "boot without startup-sequence" I found out that the system would freeze on SetPatch, after the first reboot (e. the second run). This had me puzzled. I took out SetPatch and was left with a b0rked 3.9 setup. Now "WhichAmiga" would also crash, which led me to believe something else was wrong.
I was using the Phase4 set of 4 libraries (68060.library, 68040old, -new, etc.). which turned out to be the problem. After putting the GVP supplied libraries from the install disk in LIBS: everything runs fine and speedy.
Now I'm wondering what the differences are between those library sets... the Phase5 ones are much larger (130K vs. 60K for the 68060.library if I recall correctly).
Anyway... this just for anybody who manages to get their hands on a A4060DT / Trex2 and is wondering why it is all messed up :hammer:
