[comp.sys.amiga.tech] Syquest mount list and dead 2620 board.

gutierre@noc.arc.nasa.gov (Robert Gutierrez) (07/19/90)

I asked this on c.s.a.hardware, but maybe that was the wrong place to ask???

I have a Syquest 44 meg (SQ555) HD, which hiccuped on me recently, and
has done in the past.  Does anybody know the Prep values for this beastie
on a 2090a, and a sample mountlist would be nice also, but I may have the
cyls/heads/pre-comp values all wrong.

I also have a dead 2620, which my local Amiga shop could not fix (H.T.
Electronics in Sunnyvale, CA.).  They said it's not something that
was obvious (they replaced the '020 and proms), but it will not stay
up after it boots.  I get an immediate guru after I try to run anything
or try any disk intensive 'dirs'.

Thanks in advance.
