Amiga Compatible Pegasos G3-600/128MB/Radeon on uk ebay

[amigamad]

This is a pre-April board. This means that the Articia Northbridge has bugs which can cause reliability problems with IDE (this is a development board). Later Pegasos boards fixed the problems in the Articia with a custom chip known as "April", and the new Pegasos II uses a different Northbridge entirely, which doesn't have these bugs. Personally, I have only noticed this when copying large files from CD to hard drive - sometimes the files will be corrupted, but you should be aware of this when bidding.
The Pegasos is very rare - there were only 600 originally made, and probably only a couple of dozen are in the UK. Most of these were upgraded to April or April II.

Before you bid this item I should remind you that pre-April boards suffer from random lockups. If you think IDE lockups
are annoying this is not your machine because also ethernet (and whatever else, USB?) can lock up.

You can disable UDMA in Linux and have solid partitions but DMA problems are not related with IDE only. Also ethernet
can slow down due to packet trashing.

Hell. Pre-April boards are more than 1 year old recycled from customer to 2nd or 3rd user... This guy could be 10th
owner in a row.
