Just to add Steve, it goes straight to a Blank Screen no IDE activity at all fella ..sorry

But lets also wait for other testers

I have black screen as well amiga not start like usually like you usually see reset and light black screen
And I waiting I think longer like usually for show kickstart and start reading from gotek

The TF1230 is only 64Mb right now. Until i solve the other issues I do not plan to change that.

(Oh i see... let me see if i can figure out why that is happening)

Also I have found that some CF cards are unhappy when accessed at 7Mb/s speeds.

Update for the RAM issue...

An improvement. No more yellow screen for me with this one. It starts booting, but it freezes shortly after.

EDIT: no issues booting from floppy it seems. It's only booting from CF that freezes it, after it loads the first few commands.

No Boot black screen

I have check last firmware on my 3.0 (non working at all before) and 3.1 kick (working before)
3.0 - Boots to ATK via floppy - no FAST RAM detected (expected if FASTRAM is organized like in TF1260), crashes on IDE activity
3.1 - Boot to ATK via floppy - FASTRAM detected correctly, crashes on IDE activity.

OS 3.0 will not detect memory at 0x8000000. This was added in OS3.1
