I've recently run into trouble upon trying the following configuration:
A2000C Board 6.2
A2091 Host Adapter with 2MB RAM on Board
Quantum P80S Drive first on chain
Seagate ST1096N Drive second on chain
A2630 Accelerator Board
The machine gurued a few seconds after booting, without any external
cause. Both A2091 and A2630 work properley independet, or together in
other machines (4.x boards)

Have you got extra memory on the 2091 or 2630? Perhaps there is a bad chip? Do you have any non-CBM programs running? Is your power supply up to snuff? --------------------------------------- | patrick_meloy@outbound.wimsey.bc.ca | | 'The Outbound' BBS Vancouver BC | ---------------------------------------

Have you got extra memory on the 2091 or 2630? I've heard that the same combination and THE SAME boards correctly run with a different A2000... The A2091 has 2MB extra memory on board; the system crashes although it is disavled. The A2630 has 4MB RAM on board; the system seems to crash with 2 and 4MB. However, it seemed to run with 32bit-RAM disabled. Currently I am running the 2630 with a different controller (ALF-3) and everything is pretty fine. An Advantage 2000 worked correctly, too. > Perhaps there is a bad chip? Do you have any non-CBM programs running? Is > your power supply up to snuff? The crash's are absolutely software indipendet; both 1.3 and 2.0 lead to india. Anyway, I stopped the machine right after booting 1.3 without *ANY* program being run - CRASH.
