Restocking Individual Computers items, requests? CD32

[redrumloa]

I am in the process of putting together my next Individual Computers order and am accepting input. I just sold out again(!!!) of all MMC Replay and RR-Net, so they are a given. I will probably order a handful of Deneb, remaining couple Catweasel MK4 and a few X-Surf 3cc. Beyond that, we'll see. If you have a request, PM me quickly and I will stock it. One example is C-One, they are expensive to stock. I may just get one for myself..

Oh and if anyone is interested in a brand new, unused, NTSC CD32, relatively cheap, PM me.

How about some of those new scandoublers that Jens's supposed to be working on?

Deneb is not from Jens but from E3B...  :-)

An A600 030 turbocard? :-D

A Kylwalda?

Yeah, an A600/O30 would be nice, but I recently wrote to Jens about the Kylwalda and he said they are all long gone and will not be produced again.

I wanted one to use in conjunction with a Catweasle card to allow booting from a PC drive on an emulated Amiga, as described in Jens spec for the Kylwalda.

Indiividual Computers distributes for E3B.

Bummer, I wanted one so I could boot from a regular PC disk drive.

Deneb heck yah! I didn't know anyone in the US stocked them...

[amigakit]

Catweasel MK4 are all gone unfortunately (we bought the 'safety' stock two weeks ago-sorry!)- new production run very shortly, though so dont worry.

Shame about Kylwalda- it was a piece of useful hardware.

Kylwalda has nothing to do with emulation, it's only useful for real Amigas.

[amigadave]

Quoting another A.org member who owns a Kylwalda:

"From the motherboard a floppy a cable goes to Kylwalda boot adapter, then this adapter chains to Catweasel. Without Kylwalda I would not have a bootable DF0:, as you cannot boot directly from a Catweasel connected floppy, at cold boot (that's why Individual Computers released this boot adapter)."

It is my understanding that this arrangement will work with the Catweasle installed in an Amiga, or in a PC where the Catweasle is used under emulation.  Amiga Hardware Database site states:

"Can also integrate an ISA Catweasel with a PC floppy controller."

I also had seen a similar statement on Jens site, but can't find it now.

Since the Mk4 and the Mk3/Flipper versions of the Catweasle both have PCI connectors, I would think that the same holds true for them in a PC.

The addition of the Kylwalda to a Catweasle is the only way to boot from a Catweasle controlled floppy drive.

As I do not own a Kylwalda, I can't test this assumption through WinUAE/Amiga Forever/AmiKit/etc.

If anyone else has both the Kylwalda and Catweasle Mk3, or Mk4 combination, can you please try to boot from it using WinUAE, or Amiga Forever, or AmiKit?  That way I will know if I should pursue finding a Kylwalda used somewhere, or begging Jens to make one last production run of them for those of us that want one.

Edit:  If anyone that owns a Kylwalda will be attending either the CommVEx4 event, or AmiWest this year, please bring it with you and I will bring a PC with one of my Catweasle cards installed in it to test out this functionality.  I am trying to make arrangements to attend both of those events.

@redrumloa,

What is the current price and availability of the IDEfix and IDE Express combo?  I have another brand of IDE buffered splitter/controller, but reading Jens description makes me wonder if I should use the one I have that was purchased from AmigaKit, or sell it and get the combo from Jens?

I want to install an internal Mac SuperDrive DVDRW into my A12000/060 and reduce or eliminate all the external SCSI devices connected to it (I have a larger 2.5" hdd coming through the mail to help me get rid of the second hdd which is external right now).

[adonay]

How about a Clone A, Scandoubbler or that A600 030 he bragged about a few years ago ? Non to be seen yet

@amigadave
I am guessing what you are referring to on the Individual Computer site but the text referring to the colors of the IDEFIX Express boards is out-of-date.  If you bought it from us recently, then it is probably the one that can be updated.
