few troubleshooting questions

[oggie]

• What's the jumper for by the ide header? I can't read the silscreen on mine.
• What type of image shold I write to the cf card? I mean, what version of the OS? I had a card from my 1200 that I tried, and it just gave me blank screen. It's WB 3.1
• Without a CF card, it does show the cd32 disc logo. Is that an indication that the card should work?
• Can I hurt anything if I attach a cf card reader backwards. The one I have doesn't have pin1 indicated, so I'm unsure of the orientation.

you need a jumper on two pins next to IDE as these are the Card enable/ Disable pins
see pic below

it will then boot with your A1200 cf card

Well loook at that! That's all I needed was the jumper. Thanks!

Guess I need to build a proper image for the cd32 since it's looking for a floppy.

Just comment the DF0: out in the Startup-Sequence no need to make another CF

Thanks.

But what I mean was I need to copy this cf card and get it working on a new one.

I recommend Win32diskimager, it’s open source.

That worked. It now boots and I can use it just like my a1200.

Now I need to get it to boot directly into x-bench and be controllable with a joystick.
