Also, if you're intending to use TOS 2.06, I believe you must use the ROM socket on the IDE adapter in order to take advantage of the decode it needs.
If you don't have a ROM in the IDE adapter, and are using the original ROM slots, then you will need to boot using a floppy that has hard disk drivers on it.
TOS 1.04 doesn't boot from IDE without a patch, which I uploaded earlier in this post.
But as exxos said, you can either use one ROM or the other, but not both.

DO NOT USE MOBILE / CGNAT DEVICES WHERE THE IP CHANGES CONSTANTLY!
At this time, it is unfortunately not possible to whitelist users when your IP changes constantly.
You may inadvertently get banned because a previous attack may have used the IP you are now on.
So I suggest people only use fixed IP address devices until I can think of a solution for this problem!

Re: EXXOS IDE V1.1 R1C BUILD & INSTALL INFORMATION
so if i remove the rom from the board it could fire up the machine just for testing, as i will need to fit sockets for a 6 rom 1.04 and caps, then once i have it working i can sort out the dual rom as i really only want the 1.04 roms in the system

Re: EXXOS IDE V1.1 R1C BUILD & INSTALL INFORMATION
The controller tested for me on ST, MST and how I used the PLCC-DIP adapter worked on STE.
And so, if we want to use DUALTOS in IDE EXXOS, it has to be removed TOS from the disc, otherwise it will not work 100%.
If we want to have TOS 1.04 installed on the disc, it will work, but this TOS must have a patch.
And don't forget to connect the IDE to ACSI10.

Re: EXXOS IDE V1.1 R1C BUILD & INSTALL INFORMATION
ASCI. wire is to allow TOS206 to auto boot from IDE... TOS 1.4 cannot boot from IDE... In that case you have to load driver from floppy everytime...

I did 104/206 for IDE V1.1 R1.C. Where TOS 104 has the IDE autoboot patch.
Works great !!

Re: EXXOS IDE V1.1 R1C BUILD & INSTALL INFORMATION
All of my dual boot 1.04\2.06 ROMs have the 1.04 patch from @czietz for IDE boot, works brilliantly.

Re: EXXOS IDE V1.1 R1C BUILD & INSTALL INFORMATION
Although you get the 2.06 decode with the interface, there is a patched 1.04 version I uploaded in the ROMs section which will boot to IDE.thecaver99 wrote: 12 Feb 2021 11:46 is there a download of the patched 1.04 roms to work with the ide as i have the stfm i would need the extra logic to have 2.06 on the system and i will do that once i have a working system to start with
