Smerf's A1200

By the way this project is still underway, have to straighten out the wires and mount the new board in somehow.

Hi,

@Karlos,

a mediator board is in the works sometime in the future. Already have my Voodoo board, only hope the Voodoo board works, it is about 10 years old.

Unless you ever plan to use OS4 (and you can find one), the G-Rexx is also an option. One that, at least from a hardware perspective, is much better for your configuration. It attaches to the same MiniPCI slot that the BVision does and expands it into a full bus board, unhampered by any of the limitations imposed by the trapdoor slot interface.

Hi,

@Karlos,

Already have OS 4.1, works on the Amiga 1200, but I like OS 3.9 better. Will have to take a look at the G-Rexx board. Thanks for the info, might get one for Christmas, off my work bonus. You know sell enough computers and Cooky baby gives you a big bonus.

Just to be clear, GRexx is not going to work with 4.1, but will work with the Mediator. However, you may find you like 4.1 rather more with RTG than you do (presently) without it. It makes quite a difference.
