Are you trying to update the firmware on the SIDE2 cartridge or in U1MB? It's not clear to me using translation.
SIDE.SYS was updated to use DUNUSE and of course supports the XDCB, so old versions must be to blame.
U1MB PBI/SIDE2 should work just fine alongside IDE+ providing the devices have different PBI device IDs. Certainly I used them both together here without issues. As for the other questions: Google translate is not doing a good enough job here but if anyone wants to send me a precis in English, feel free. All I know is that all the most recent software and firmware is available and works, providing the hardware also works.
Regarding the content of ROMs: You can place whatever you desire on the SIDE2's external ROM (upper 256KB), and if you're relying on U1MB SDX, you can replace the lower half as well. The new U1MB BIOS, meanwhile, deliberately allows easy editing of SDX and GOS slot names (using a hex editor: see tech docs), so you can put anything you like there as well and name it as you please. I figured plenty of choice should be most pleasing to the user, but one cannot please everyone. :)
"Final" U1MB build:

Also see firmware page for Incognito and SIDE/SIDE2 updates.
Update:
http://atari8.co.uk/new-ultimate-1mb-in ... er-update/
Includes revised HSIO driver with PCLink support and improved SIO2BT handling.
Rapidus prototype was green too. :)
I see - thanks. Certainly FDISK will find the device on any ID (providing the version of FDISK used is not ancient).
LOL... just checked my older board and it's a Rev. C. Works fine with APT FDISK, etc. Is there anything I should test here too?
(Note: device ID jumper was long ago moved to position 3).
Yeah... that's what I thought.
Why does Rev. C prohibit the use of APT?
Link to originating firmware page as well, if I may:

:)
If the device ID is set with a jumper, it's a soldering iron job (I changed the ID of my early-revision IDE Plus board this way). Later revision is much easier, since you just turn the device ID selection dial.
In any case, you'll see a row of 8 pairs of pads just behind the auxiliary power jack, probably with a jumper soldered to the leftmost pair of pads. Desolder the jumper and move it to the opposite end (or some place in between).
Yes indeed. I hope I praised Konrad for SIO2BSD already (although I was prohibited from using it until now, using a Windows machine), but I will do so again. But bringing Konrad's excellent tool to a wider audience and attaching it to an easy-to-use GUI tool is also some attainment.
Again: excellent work - many thanks for this.
Did you notice any instability on the machine? Other than that I am out of ideas too.
ricziricz napisał/a:Yes. I'm sure. It worked. Besides, as I wrote before, VBXE J1 pin 8 is connected to P4 pin VB in U1MB, so I'm assuming it's connected properly.
...unless there's something else I should check...?
Nothing at all else to check, since it's worked on every other machine with VBXE in it. Of course a possibility for bugs exists, but I cannot imagine of what kind. Every other situation of this kind (in which old BIOS did what new BIOS cannot) eventually resolved itself in some hardware issue. What VBXE core are we using here? The BIOS attempts to map in the MEMAC_B window at $4000 to see if it replaces the Atari's base RAM. If RAM changes, we have a VBXE. If we can toggle presence of hardware registers by toggling VB pin, then we have a VBXE under control of the VB pin. It's that simple, so it's difficult to imagine why it would not work.
Besides, I did as advised Voy. Sflaszowałem U1MB to the old BIOS - could turn on and off VBXE. Of course, for checking I fired a couple of demos and games that require VBXE and working properly. Sflaszowałem again new bios and VBXE is again inactive and soft not to see him.
But Covox I can set enabled / disabled (?)
So - VBXE is enabled (therefore successfully detected), but cannot be switched off under software control. Same bits are toggled as before, so who knows.
Covox cannot be detected in software, so the option is always enabled. :)
ricziricz napisał/a:Przed apdejtem w starym biosie VBXE było włączone i działało.
Are you sure of this? As I frequently write: old BIOS didn't care if there was a VBXE in the machine but would still let you choose $D6xx, $D7xx, or OFF for VBXE. If VBXE option doesn't show up in the new BIOS menu it means the decoding address is NOT under the control of the VB pin.
Once again, the old BIOS didn't know or care whether the VB pin was connected to anything, or if VBXE was connected to the wrong pin. So there's a good chance that things which seem not to work with the new BIOS never worked in the first place. I already saw this with numerous U-Switch/Stereo installations. "My stereo cannot be toggled with the new BIOS, but it worked before". Turns out it never worked in the first place, but the original BIOS gave no indication of any problem since it didn't test the hardware.
PBI BIOS displayed a version notice when SDX is enabled (on cold powerup when SDX bank = 0) from very early versions too.
lemiel napisał/a:Za jakiś czas może pojawi się tool diagnostyczny od FJC w którym może będzie to sprawdzane.
Ja nie umiem sprawdzić PBI - nie wiem co sprawdzać.
Memory and System->SpartaDOS X->Enabled
PBI BIOS Setup->PBI BIOS->Enabled
PBI BIOS Setup->Hard Disk->Enabled
Advanced Settings->PBI BIOS Notice->Enabled
Save and Exit->Save changes and boot
If you see "Ultimate PBI v.x.xx" at the top of the screen, you have the most recent CPLD.
What is suspicious about bootable ATRs? Is there something about them that you find untrustworthy? :D
Graphical OS is ROM-based, but you're free to ignore it if you want and use the space for a 320KB build of SDX. I'll refrain from further comparisons between a pre-emptively multi-tasking Graphical OS with overlapping windows, inter-process messaging, micro-kernel, etc, with TRS Desktop, since I doubt that will end well. Fortunately there's plenty of software available for those who appreciate nice colours. :)
@Yansen
In response to your question, you may read about GUI project here:
http://atari8.co.uk/gui/
I'll make a ROM available for Ultimate shortly on my website - hopefully this weekend.
Meanwhile, hopefully GUI advertising won't send us too far off-topic.
Please use versions posted in AA topic. I was asked to carefully document each fix in changelog, which I'm doing in recent versions. Website will be updated soon, but my second pair of hands is missing right now. ;)
stRing napisał/a:Wersja 0.45 nie działała mi z SIO2BT, a dokładniej - nie resetowało "na zimno" z klawiatury SHIFT+RESET. Musiałem powrócić do wersji 0.24. Czy było coś z tym robione przy wyższych wersjach?
No clue what could be wrong with SIO2BT: check high-speed SIO settings, I guess. Shift+Reset problem is a known bug, since the function clashes with partition table re-read (also on Shift+Reset). Thanks for reminder: need to fix that.
Just received rather officious email from Konrad pointing out that ARC is missing. Pure human error: I must have removed it by accident using SDX Imaging tool while deleting all the MAN files.
Will fix later today.
