I thought I'd complement you guys on the A1230+ Series II and A1291 SCSI
kit I installed in my A1200. I just finished installing a Quantum 240meg
lps Prodrive and your software and harddware worked like a charm. My last
experience with a SCSI drive was with my Xetec system on my A500 and it
seemed that it always took hours to get that thing running right, yours
took a matter of minutes once I installed the drive. The only annoying
thing is that there wasn't any documentation on FastPred or ExpertPrep
included with the package, but both utilities were fairly self
expalnitory.
On another note, there does seem to be a problem with the GVPCpuCtrl
utility that can with the A1230 series II board. For some reason it will
not place the kickstart image in 32 bit ram if it is placed after
"Binddrivers" in the startup-sequence, the manual recommends putting it in
the user-startup file, but this doesn't work (at least on my system). In
addition, the application icon for doing the same thing by placing the
icon in the WBStartup drawer will not work either. I have mentioned this
to someone at GVP on the phone the other day. Curiously, the A1230+ I
previously had (series I) and GVPCpuCtrl utility didn't have this problem,
it worked fine in my User-Startup file.
All IN All, I'm a very happy customer.
