KS 1.3 adf image with SDBox

[mlorenzati]

I'm trying to create a modified KS 1.3 adf with SDBox drivers and it's kicking me when I double click the sd0 gear "task held finish all disk activity"

1. Added in l the fat95 file
2. Added in devs the spisd.device file
3. Added the SD0 and SD0.info into the root of the disk to make it clickable

I was able to make it work with with automount also, I can share de adf

I got the same error under 1.3 (software error - task held) when I double click the sd0 in the root. What is the solution? did you create the automount in the startup-sequence? ADF would be helpful :-)

In WB 1.3 try making an IconX-script that you can double-click to mount the SD-card. The icon-file needs to be of the type "Project" and have IconX specified as Default Tool. Try with the attached files.

Mount_SDCARD.zip

Thank you! It worked this way without an error, but had to put a "C:" in front of IconX under WB 1.3 (IconX was not found otherwise - Error 205).

i made it work with workbench 3.1 on ks 3.1
tried making a bootable 1.3 with it, i also:
fat95 file into L
spisd.device file to devs
added SD0 and SD0.info to devs like on my 3.1

when i boot 1.3 on ks 1.3 - if i try "mount sd0: from SD0" i get device sd0: not recognised and if i double click on the SD0 icon i get:
c:mount program failed (error #80000004) wait for disk activity to finish

Hi, did you pick the correct SD0-file for your version of WB 1.3 ? Also you need to do cd devs: first or give the full path like this mount SD0: from devs/SD0 and then cd SD0: for the disk-icon to appear. Or use the IconX-script (zip-file) that I posted above for double-clicking under 1.3 (with the small change sbilgeri did above adding a C: in front of IconX, see picture above Default Tool: IconX should be Default Tool: C:IconX , hit enter and save)

You must format sd card that sized <4GB and allocation unit size are 4096 bytes for FAT32.

Try to format the card with FAT, not FAT32 (partition must be less than 4GB, use Windows Disk Management tool for example to define the partition). However, I am currently testing the SDBox V2 on many different Amiga environments (around 10 different Amigas with different Kickstarts and switchers) and it's unfortunately working only on 50% of the machines. I will post a list of my test results soon. Not sure if I am doing something wrong or if there's some compatibility issues with SD card types etc.

where you able to get it working? SDBox V1 or v2?

[Sm2dux]

I have sdbox V1,formatted 2gb to fat, (wb1.3 system)
seems to work now,no error messages,type not a dosdisk yet
