Emax

Hi Colin

Thanks to you and everybody else who is trying to help me out here.

Yes, I've changed the jumpersettings on the hd so that the EIII can 
see that the scsi id on the drive has changed. I can also see when 
the EIII scans through from 0 to 7 and that the id on the hd has 
changed.

I've been e-mail corresponding with the very helpfull and skilled 
guy Rob from emulatorarchive along with you in this group. we 
haven't come up with anything concrete yet but we are now focusing 
on the boot rom version 1.0. Maybe a boot rom version 2.0 will help 
but that mean that 2 new proms are going to be programed. That's for 
the moment too hardcore for me.

I've been ill for a couple of days, that's why I haven't been 
replying. But now I'm fit for fight again :)

Best regards

Brian

there's a auto detect on the EIII and get back to you. Have you 
tried contacting Rob on the Emu Archive  site? He's the man who can 
really guide you.
