I've released a new firmware. This fixes a number of problems:-
  • Improved AltRAM controller now should be stable on more platforms
  • The 'slow release' of DTACK on pre-STE YM chips should now be handled
  • Blitter access to AltRAM now allowed again (testing feedback solicited)
  • TOS2.06 decoding now available on Test Point 1
  • LED now lights on AltRAM access
  • May be booted into 8MHz mode by connecting TP3 to GND via 220Ohm resistor at reset
The compromise to all the above is that write access is slightly slower in this version. I think that's a fair trade off for an early developmental board.

Also: there is no manual yet. Anyone fancy starting one? :twisted:

@Badwolf Does "TOS2.06 decoding now available on Test Point 1" mean I connect TP1 to 'CE'? Thanks

@exxos sorry to summon :) would you think this may be for the CE line? (BW hasn't been active for a few weeks)

Yeah TP1 is CE on the H5 or dualtos boards etc.
