Cyberstorm MK2 firmware and keyboard problems
« on: November 26, 2005, 05:58:19 PM »
Hi,

I've "updated" my Cyberstorm MK2 with the unofficial Bodylove firmware; the one with the A1000 jingle on boot. Problem is that since the update after sometime the keyboard stops working. When I unplug it and then put it in again it works again.

Could this be from the Mk2 update?

Hmm...

I can't find any other firmware files to restore my MK2.
Does anyone know where to find it?

You can get install disks here.

Scroll down to Cyberstorm MKII. It is the SCSI tooldisk you want. Read the instructions carefully before using MKupdate. I will check which version my board came with because there are two disks available: V2.2 and V2.4

Okay I checked and my board came with V2.1 but I know that I got the next update from a mate, so that would mean if I were you I would go for V2.2 at least.

The MK2Update program says it only updates the SCSI driver...

Yep I tried it and only the SCSI part is updated.

Could you read an image from your firmware and mail that to me please?

@ flashlab

The SCSI MKupdate is the only flash update I know about on the MKII.

Here is the page I found:

http://www.neodyne.de/bodylove/downloads.html

The program MKxDiag is what I used.
There is also a program to make a backup of your current firmware called MK2Backup. Could you please make an image from your MK2?

I flashed my MK2 without backing up... STUPID!

Unfortunately I don't have the MKII setup at all (I have PPC now). The MKII is in storage. But if nobody else offers I will swap them over and do it.

Could be but I've tried two keyboards with my computer and the problem started when I flashed my MK2. So just to be sure I want to flash it back.

How do you enter the bootmenu of the MK2?

@ Flashlab

I think you need manuals. I recently gave English scans of both the MKII and the CyberSCSI module manuals to the guys at Big Book of Amiga Hardware. Head over there and download them.

Big Book

A4000 accelerators --> Phase 5 --> Cyberstorm MKII 060

Thanks, I read them but there is nothing there about the firmware unfortunately.

No no, that was to help you with your 'boot menu' question  ;-)
