Do you still need more feedback?
I can set it up if needed, but I need to know if my testing would be any value?

Seems to be working! EIDE is at 5.2MB/s performance seems excellent (not sure if I've tested this same firmware?) - Still cannot get beyond 62.5Mhz, but I assume that's related to the chip speed stuff and the clocking change you talked about?
Fantastic pushing this update out =D

I think all testing is valuable… this doesn’t have the blinks lights extras though.

Thanks for beta FW :-). Is it technically possible that in the future the FW can be upgraded from a CF card on IDE TF1260?

FLASHED. !!
seems stable, might say kind of sluggish, dont take that the wrong way, i am just trying to help with some feedback.
ehide speed is showing me an impressice 2.654.... 2.7xxx .
when i say sluggish i mean like it stalls for a sec then catches up, repeat. hopw this helps.
nice to see an update, Thanks
Are you sure you are using the EIDE port there (the IDE connector on the TF1260) - and testing a drive on that interface, rather than mobo IDE? You should get around 2.6MB with onboard, but much faster (eg. > 4MB) on the EIDE interface. What do you mean by "sluggish" - I see no problems like that here?

I do not understand "stalls for a sec then catches up".
EDIT: e.g. I need something more specific. I see no lag on 2-3 setups i have here with this and I've no idea what software you're using.

I`ve run Quake on loop for hours with new firmware no problem, where`s this lag he`s talking about ?

No you can't do it with a Blaster...A raspberry pi can if you have one

Yeah i have about 15 different JTAG cables because none of them are compatible.
