+9640News Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Tony Knerr released a SCSI Boot Eprom years ago. I do not see the eprom image on WHT and I have not found it on YahooGroups. Does anyone have the image I can burn? I looked at Arcadeshopper thinking I may be able to order an eprom, however, all the eproms for ordering have seemed to disappeared, or I am not looking in the right location. Preferably, if someone has the image or can point me to where it is, it would be appreciated as I can burn my own eproms. Beery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beery You aren't looking in the right location https://www.arcadeshopper.com/wp/?page_id=11#!/Hummingbird-Eeprom/p/33994194/category=12497082 Also unless it's the same as the v1 eprom it's not in the list.

atrax27407 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 It is indeed Vn 1.0 which you can order from Greg or directly from me (Hummingbird EPROMs) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+9640News Posted November 4, 2019 Author Share Posted November 4, 2019 OK, I have that Eprom that I ordered long time ago from you. Your response gave me a clue, I need to do some file renaming and find the appropriate LOAD/SYS utility. Need to go and read some docs...…….. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+InsaneMultitasker Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Once you get it booting with Tony's version of SCSI/SYS I'll email you an updated file that allows you to turn CRC on/off; it also employs a table-driven CRC routine I added to the Geneve OS CRC check utility. Thus bootup is a but faster as Shift838 can attest. (I thought I posted v2.5 in the forums but the search engine isn't finding it). Anyway, my platter and SCSI2SD device that contain the IDE/SYS and SCSI/SYS code were partially corrupted by MDOS 7.00 (presumably) fortunately I have copies on floppy for when I can put my own system back together. I also made a dump of the image to PC but it isn't the final rev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+9640News Posted November 4, 2019 Author Share Posted November 4, 2019 OK, made quite a bit of progress. The SCSI system is booting from the V1.00 eprom. Updated files when you get a chance is appreciated whenever you get a chance. Beery 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+InsaneMultitasker Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Excellent work. Hmm, now that I think about it the updated SCIS/SYS executable might be on the Heatwave BBS platter that I had to retire (and the reason file transfers are offline). If Shift838 has a copy and wants to share here that's fine. I'll scout around this week as time permits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today is my day off this week, so doing some posting here documenting things, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
