Greetings from Italy!
« on: November 20, 2006, 08:55:29 AM »
Hi everybody!

Just subscribed Amiga.org hoping to find a bit more life than on the newsgroups, which unfortunately are, day after day, becaming like a desert :-(

I do own the following Amigas: A600, A1200, A4000T, A500 and an A500+ motherboard for which I built a Zorro II + CPU slot expansion board a couple of years ago.

Now I am trying to get information about software for building a custom "3.9" ROM to be burned into EPROMs rather than having to buy one of those expensive Kickflash adapters.

Ciao!

Well, yes, I bought pin compatible EPROMs for much less and so I find that board expensive, plus it wastes a slot :-)

Hi and welcome,

I only signed up yesterday after a year of thinking I didn't need to!

I guess the nostalgia got to me in the end. :roll:

Nice collection of Amigas; do you have the original Commodore 4000T?

I'll never forget when my Dad got me and my family the Amiga 500+ when I was 8 years old - it was like a whole new world was opened up! I've still got it today, even though it's been through the wars of my childhood.

Hope you stick around.

Bought an "ancient" one on eBay a couple of years ago for about 60 euro, it is very useful to me. It is PC-based and I use it on my A4000T thanks to an A2286 bridgeboard ;-)

No it is an Amiga Technologies one. Unfortunately it is not perfect, since the onboard Fast RAM isn't seen. I had RAMSEY replaced but it didn't solve the problem :-(

I have an Apollo 4060 turbo board on it, with 64 MB of memory,  because since some time it doesn't work fine with 128 MN anymore :boohoo:
