Can anyone having issues with registration retry please.

About 3000T I got 2 reports of "nonworking with SCSI" however I also got one 3000T working with SCSI.
the working one uses DMAC2 and Ramsey4 00-04 SCSI chip. but Kickstart 3.2. 47.111 in ROM.

can this be the thing?

Little reminder that The TF4060 has the opposite motherboard settings to the BFG. TF is EXT vs INT. If you have your board set on INT it will give your colour bars 1 in 15-20 times. This happens when the Motherboard and TFs 25 mhz just so happen to be in phase.

If you are unsure the motherboard jumper settings are written on the TF

Hi,
sorry for coming back late.
I attended a metal festival, my daughter's birthday, ... real live problems. :D

My 3000T comes with
- Kick 47.111 / 3.2.2.1
- Same ZuluSCSI as before
- Ramsey 04, DMAC 02, WD 04

With firmware 2024-05-09 SCSI started working on my 3000T (and TF4060's IDE stopped working :D )!!!

SCSI does not work on my 3000T with any of: 2024-06-12, 2024-07-24, 2024-07-28

That is insane but consistent with other reports.

So fixing A4000T SCSI breaks 3000T scsi .

I'm sorry. :(
I will talk with @Oliver_A tomorrow and we will discuss, how we may help.

Ok i have devised an experiment.

Take the FGPA (RAM) file from the 2024-05-09 FW and use the CPLD (BUS) from the 2024-06-12 FW. This will tell me where the issue was introduced.

EDIT: this is only relevant for 3000T users

Will do - promised, managing expectations:

Today, Saturday
- Birthday cake event with family,
- Birthday party with friends,

Sunday
- Meeting some friends,
- Sports to prevent my back from degrading,
- Cinema with the kids.

And back to the threadmill of work days... :cry:

Will do ASAP - but that may be next weekend.

Ah no worries.

i really need a 3000T mobo to support it properly.

If anyone is wondering why the 4060 is more expensive it's just because the cost to develop it and test it is so much higher than other cards. A 1200 can't have that many things plugged into it

Making a properly working A3000/A4000 CPU card is like winning the Platinum-Medal contest of Amiga CPU accelerator design. ;-)
Even Phase 5 took at least 2 attempts to get it working properly with the Cyberstorm MKII and MKIII (MKI had DMA issues).

The price is totally justified, anyone claiming otherwise is severely underestimating the effort in testing a huge amount of different HW iterations, being zorro Cards, mainboard revisions, chip revisions, power supplies...
