@all here:

Well I have misunderstand the forum here quite a bit :) So here again thanks to all replies!

Currently I'm installing the OS while formatting the other partitions, and no errors occur, so I would say that DMA problems are history now hurray :)

And as Alex has stated, the Installation is very easy, just follow the instructions provided in the Installation Guide (mainly to update the u-boot), the rest is usual "Amiga Install".

@SieGeL

The DMA problems ARE history, however, on the pre-release DMA is not enabled.

@xeron

That's something I've been meaning to ask, actually. Is DMA disabled by default within OS4-pre, whether you want it or not, or should one do the ide=nodma in the bootargs for OS4 as well?

hehe thanks for that hint, just wondered why formatting took that long ;)
Anyway the install was successful and works fine, so now digging into it.

GAH!!!
I'm just hoping my UBoot is flashable. I think its a May 2003 file on there atm, but I haven't checked for a few months (the lure of my OS3.9-equipped 1200 was too much).

Mine was also a May 2003 but reflashed OK.

Fingers crossed for you! Maybe you should try to reflash before you get the OS4 Pre-Release as it would be frustrating to get the CD and THEN find out you had a protected chip.

@all

Well my prerelease is being send, but I still have no CD / DVD -RW drive.

Is the Nec 2500 any good, especially the Mount Rainier support with this drive is ok ?

I have a NEC ND-2500 in my A1, works fine under linux.

Not sure about Mount Rainier, does the 2500 support Mount Rainier.

And AOS4 is so fast on the A1 you don't even miss dma.

I'm just talking through my hat, as I don't have my CD yet. I am jealous, but trust I'm right about the speed.

@Mos107

That is nice to hear.

I took a look at the mount rainier website and the NEC 2500 with firmware 1.0m complies to easywrite which is the marketing logo for mount rainier compliant drives.
