I did the ScsiSpeed tests and it's probably a problem with this PLATINUM card.
On other CF cards it works ok and it's like this:
1.Stec 1GB - 2.5 MB / s
2.WD -SiliconDrive 2GB - 3GB / s
3.Kingston 4GB - 3.2GB / s
4.CompactFlash (with Ali) 16GB - 2.8GB / s
5.SD to IDE adapter with 8GB sandisk ultra card - 3,2MB / s
6. 2.5 "HDD Samsung 80GB - 5.4MB / s
I did tests on kickstart 3.1 and only setpatch, loadwb and mufastrom before ScsiSpeed.

Boot without startup-sequence from DF0 drive:
Load module devs: ehide.device => system reboots without messages and reloads from floppy but ehide.device is not loaded in memory and no partitions mounted in system are visible.
I set up the partition with a small 200mb for testing and it will start normally in the controller from the motherboard. I have kickstart 3.1 but I have OS 3.2 installed.
So I just installed 3.2 roms and ehide.device and yes I get the same fault no boot, this is defo software problem, will have a look later

Today everything works fine for me, yesterday the problem was the CF card on which I had the system installed. Other cards I have work properly with ehide.device and rom 3.1 and 3.2. Well, unless it's a coincidence of a card and software problem at one time.
I noticed, however, that ehide.device does not want to cooperate with another CF Stec 2GB card, but not always. in this case, I solved the problem by soldering a small MLC 100uF 16V type capacitor to the power pins on the IDE2CF adapter, after this procedure the driver works every time.

I did one more test and compiled kickstart 3.2 + ehide.device with Remus. Now it works very well even with the card that previously had problems with ehide and loadmodule!

I gave the TF1230 a real work-out over the weekend and IMHO this card hits the economical functional sweet spot with a A1200. I think the word maybe out, as the build components required are disappearing rapidly. :P

I wanted to order soldered bird seeds PCB but I don't know what's going on with these black spots
Would someone be able to explain to me whether this is to be the OK or something is wrong

If its from JLC ignore this. Their rendering software is wrong. Use the CPL files i posted.
