[comp.sys.amiga] Xetec/Lucas/Frances

Hi all,
	I have a major question? I am presently running an Ami 1000 
with LUCAS/FRANCES (4M stuffed) @ 20Mhz and this baby runs SOLID!.
Anyway, The problem is now the Xetec Fasttrack drive doesn't auto boot.
I have 1.3 so that's not it. I removed the auto boot jumper in the SA-10
and tried to just use the drive NO LUCK.  So I went back to the WEDGE
hard drive interface and it works fine. Any hints fixes help of any kind
would be excellent!

P.S. Has anyone else got this configuration or close to it. I want to 
add a Rejuvenator next if possible!

I was running an A1000 with a Hurricane accelerator, and had similar
problems with a Xetec hard drive controller.
I built a bus terminator (it's been on the net a couple of times) and
away went the problem. Later I installed a Rejuvenator, which rejuced
bus noise, as most of it came from the Kickstart daughter board which
the Rejuvenator replaces, and now I don't need the terminator.

Get the Rejuvenator, and solve all your problems.
