@Icky Found a, literally, "small issue" on the IDE header..
I will need to build one up and test it all works correctly before putting kits in my store yet also. But if all goes well (does it ever?) I hope they will start appearing over the next few weeks.
Sounds very promising Exxos. :) And it looks like the 44 pin cable fits.. :) :) Great work. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

@exxos - you exposed my thumb to the world :)
I plan on removing the connector tonight and putting in a right-angled socket one that the CF card will plug directly into.

Now my H4 mostly works, can I get some new IDE boards?

Sure, you can have a mostly working IDE board.

Right angled socket works really well with the CF card adaptors. Picture minus my thumb. Just need to find a ROM, CPU and do the patches before sorting out the firmware.

@exxos , can I use the IDE board but insert it with no processor and use the on board H4 processor? I suspect not but thought I'd ask.
