TF4060 Rev2

The TF4060 Rev2 has been designed, built and its booting. It mostly fixes mistakes with the rev1 like putting the Pi hat on backwards, and a pin direction issue with the IDE interface. It will boot natively from the TF IDE interface without having to loadmodule. The A4000 IDE interface is unaffected, it still works fine. Superficially it looks identical to the Rev1.
i've not tested if DMA is still working but thats on my list to do.
I have managed to get CPU clock switching to happen although there are glitches with it still. That was an Epic PITA to reprogram part of the FPGA fabric at "runtime".

I've now got my 4000 repaired.
@terriblefire you mentioned Amiga's Internal IDE is fine, how is the Boot Priority? Does the TF boot first?
I am probably going to put a CD-ROM on the Amiga's Internal IDE. At the moment I am just using a PC backplane CF card adaptor for easy swapping.
Cheers

I have no idea. This is a partition table / driver question. Perhaps
@erique can answer how RDB/AmigaOS does this.

Yeah, basically you assign the boot priority to each partition, it doesn't matter which controller it's on.

@terriblefire do you know if any Amiga37 videos captured the TF4060? I thought you might have been told if there was.
I had a look and there seems no specific videos of hardware on show. There are hours of looking at a empty red sofa!
Cheers

Many people video'd the TF4060. I've no idea who was who except for AmigaBill. He already had me on his twitch stream talking about it.
