to refer to ide0:1 instead of ide0:0, then it should do the same as you do manually.

If it works, you could also make the same change to the MENU_2_COMMAND, so it also works with the boot menu.

I still get the incalid command: menu error from CFE, and still have to type MENU_0_COMMAND manually to boot up. What is the menu in CFE, and do I need to do anything to add it?

Page 4 says to:
CFE> setenv -p STARTUP menu

It seems that is the menu thing being complained about, but I can't find anything about how to define that so it works...

Hi,
It's not about this topic but about AmigaOne SE/XE/uA1 U-Boot. Sorry for being off-topic but noticed you here and I think according to this thread:
https://amigaworld.net/modules/newbb/v ... _id=30736&forum=15#630521
you had the U-Boot sources for AmigaOne at least sometimes in the past. Do you still have it somewhere and could you please pass it on? I wrote to Hyperion about it but it seems it was lost and nobody knows where is it now so maybe only the old sources are available. It does not matter if it does not compile or work, I can attempt to fix it but we can't include firmware binaries in QEMU for amigaone unless we can recreate it from source. Including the firmware would remove one step of downloading it separately (it's GPL so can be freely dowloaded and distributed but QEMU only accepts binaries with source; we already have that for sam460ex but not for amigaone as the sources in upstream U-Boot were only partial and for older version).

Strange that menu is not listed in your available command

@billt

it is very strange. "menu" command should be in list of available commands. And in your list it is missing.

Did you try boot from second BIOS? According to Nemo TRM manual, there are two chips:

Unfortunatelly I have no instructions for rescue Bios image. Maybe somebody here has them.

And now I got far enough to break things again. :)

AmiStore is horrible, but I eventually managed to buy and install Ehancer Core, then Enhancer 2.2. I also bought but did not yet install Radeon Drivewr v5 and NovaBridge, and also Ranger.

Lots of partial downloads that stopped and got weird on retrying. Better to stop and start over than to retry. But eventually got a full download for each.

The two Enhancer packages installed and rebooted OK.

Then I got smart and ran updater from Enhancer. Now, at CFE when I do my MENU_0_COMMAND as usual, the progress bar gets to Loading Finished, and that's it. I suspect something bad happened with graphics driver or something. Anyone smarter than me have any ideas? I'm not sure how to recover from this to then go and install RadeonHD v5, if that is the correct thing to do now, or what else to do.

I have not ye3t figured out any magical encantation to boot from CDROM or to dir the CDROM.

setenv -p MENU_5_COMMAND "setenv amigaboot_quiet Y ; boot -fs=amigafs atapi0.0:amigabootfs"
and without the -fs at all, tryign -fs=iso9660 since I can't find a list of possibilities to -fs other than amigafs

MENU_5_COMMAND
Error DRQ should be 0


dir atapi0.0: (with and without -fs=amigafs)
Could not get directory listing: Unsupported Function

But at least it still turns on...

if you have DVD connected to SATA port 2 ( i.e. factory default ), the command should be:

boot -fs=iso atapi0.1:amigaboot.of

X1000 can boot only from SATA ports 0 and 2.

@sailor

I don't think SATA port 2 is bootable, but I might be wrong.

Are you sure it wasn't ports 0 and 1?

Im not on my machine, so can't test

Efit: At least, im pretty sure my setup is HDD on port 0.0, DVD on port 0.1

@Raziel

from cfe point of view it is port 0.0 and port 0.1
from Nemo manual point of view it is port 0 and port 2

i.e.
0.0 = port 0 on motherboard, 0.1 = port 2 on motherboard
