Next time I'll try and remember to add a warning about the lack of progress so no-one sustains any nasty injuries through any 'premature & inadvertent contact with the ground'! ;)rubber_jonnie wrote: 09 Mar 2022 08:37 You still haven't built the IDE boards! Good job I was sitting down when I read that. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Nope...though I finally managed to get the 84 way sockets for the PLDs just before Christmas. :D
Reason is that I'd installed the TRUDIE board in my H4 to get that working initially (and test some IDE to CF cards) & have been held up on building the other H4/H5 boards, so there's been no urgency to finish off the IDE boards while the TRUDIE & HDDriver 11work so well in that H4.
I've not yet plugged the TF536 board back into the H4 either since getting TRUDIE up & running but maybe this weekend...?
I probably need to program another EPROM so that I can choose TOS 2.06 or EmuTOS for use with the TF536...which sounds like I've given myself yet another job to do (unless I can find an existing 512Kbyte image for the TLS866 programmer on the forum somewhere) - I think I've got that modified TOS 1.04/TOS 2.06 image in the H4 at the moment...unless it's still the 1.04 + the 192k EmuTOS boot image to load EmuTOS from floppy that I used with the TF536 initially (before I has the 256k TOS decoder support)... :?
(Another note to self:- organise & label the 27C4096 EPROMs properly!)
