It worked fine for me. I just had to either turn off the A1 before updating or run IDE Reset with the CD in the drive and it ran fine off my SIL Controller.

Delete this. Baah. Got to double or triple posts allready sorry!
Used to the A1 and the A1200 seems so slow that I clicked twice when "nothing happened" I hope I could delete my own messages(OFFTOPIC).

Just curious. With the new SLB, does anyone know if you can use the menu to select OS4 or Linux if both are already installed on separate hard drives? I don't think it was possible with the previous SLB.

Got it to work thanks to help from the closed site.
This was it:

printenv ide

and see if you get the response,

ide=sii

If not issue the following commands, ; I didn't

setenv ide sii
saveenv

printenv ide

If you now get ide=sii you can repeat the command,

ide reset ; Finally :)

and this time you should see all the IDE devices.




I wanted to put this here if anyone still has the same problem like I messed up.

-Happy as a dancing banana-

So, I'm quessing that variables have to be re-set to run Linux with a dual-disk on ORIGINAL (INTERNAL) Controller?
Just using "diskboot" at the prompt NOW just results in a "** No valid controller specified **" message!

A2000HD (from 1991) 060 64Mb PicassoII with OS3.5 . . . still working.

I done the second update to os 4 then done the firmware update all works very well and i can now use my usb card reader wich on os 4 displays 2 icons one for the internal 16 mb memory of the card reader and one was for the compact flash card .windows only shows an icon for the internal memory if there are no memory cards inserted in the reader this will make copying files between pc an amiga so easy and hassle free.

Top job to the people involved in the update.

i've recently installed the updat ewhich seems to have worked fine, but everytime it goes straight into theU-BOOT options and i have to exist and save befor eit will boot into OS4

an ideas how this can been resoleved
