Well, I don't have a spare CPLD, as my one had the same bad packaging you had and all of the corner pins are bent. :x

You can do it automatically via the web interface.. Just go to returns.

Has anyone tested the rev2 in an ST?

I've just tried my rev 1 and rev 2 with identical firmware code and the rev 1 is fine and the rev 2 sulks...

I've had my Rev 2 running TOS 2.06 but its a bit hit and miss, I get 8 bombs sometimes and boots the next.

I've got as far as running Gembench with it a few times (slow results as the firmware wants tweaking as you know)
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.

Managed to burn the latest EmuTos to rom and it boots to desktop fine with that.

I'm using one of exxos's ide boards as the rom decocder tho, so not tested the ide interfaceon

Edit:

won't run Gembench though as I get kernel errors etc and of course this IDE board is probably confusing the hell out of it.

I'm struggling to get this ST to work at all to be fair... :/

I've got an ST firmware if you want to test it
