Pegasos Smartfirmware / MorphOS

[takemehomegrandma]

:-?

I have no idea. I have never had the reason to think about that, so I know absolutely nothing about the debug options. Everything just worked for me. Sorry.

Drop a letter on the BT2 mailinglist!

Hope you get it to work soon. I know how frustrating it is when you can't use the new things you bought. :-(

(BTW, you said you tried several CD-ROMs in every thinkable IDE combinations. My completely unqualified guess is that your problems is memory related ...)

It's ok. CISC, on #Morphos told me. If anyone's interested (which I doubt ;-) ), it's QDebugFlags="Init", apparently.

I'm going for the "two birds with one stone" approach. I will hopefully exchange this 512mb TwinMOS RAM for 128mb and a new CDRW, on my way home tonight.
I wasn't planning on buying a new CDRW just yet (already have one) but I would have eventually.

Tell us when finally you find out what was the problem. I'm curious.

*YOU'RE* curious?  :-D

Don't worry, I'll keep you posted.  ;-)

Here I go replying to my own messages again:

I nipped out at lunch. He has no 128mb TwinMOS left, so I plumped for a 256mb module, as someone (Golem, I think) on #Morphos said he was using a 256mb TwinMOS, with no problems.
I also bought a new CD Writer, manufactured  February.

And now I can't even get to OF - pants!

I thought I had problems with my pegasos when I first got it.  :-o

Have you checked the usual suspects?  CPU module sitting in properly, cards sitting properly, DIMM snapped in, etc?

Have you tried the previous DIMM to see if it boots up?  

I sincerly hope you get it up and running.   :-(

Yes.

It's back in the shop - I took it back because I thought it might be the problem.
Now I *know* that this DIMM doesn't work at all.
So I'll be taking it back tomorrow and getting my cash back, then I shall carry out a tour of the every local PC store until I hopefully find a DIMM that is on the "working" list.

Well good luck!  Are you able to physically carry your system into the shops and test it there?

If you go to Bowlers with Paul to demonstrate the Pegasos, you will definately be able to get a DIMM that works inside the fair.

Hi Nik,

If you go to Bowlers with Paul to demonstrate the Pegasos, you will definately be able to get a DIMM that works inside the fair.

When is that?

It's on every sunday.

Thanks. :pint:

Theoretically, yes but, practically, sod that! :lol:
Too much walking and carrying for my liking.

I see. Well, I definitely won't be able to get down to Manchester until beginning of July, and I was kinda hoping to have it working by then. ;-)

This Sunday I'm at the football - title decider
Next weekend is the Scottish Cup Final
The three weekends after that I'll be in Canada.

Once that's all over with, I'd still be interested in coming down though.

Canada eh? Lucky man!

[sdesros]

Is something wrong with Canada?!  :-x  :-P

@Wilse:
So you're going to let Tom know if your trip brings you over to Ottawa right?  ;-)
