Expansion Systems Dataflyer IDE help
« on: June 05, 2007, 03:15:15 AM »
I am trying to get my Dataflier IDE card working in my A2000 with 040 and OS 3.9, no luck.  Maybe the IDE drives are too newish?  But I cannot even see the device driver in the OS.  I googled and found it should be expsys.device but dont see it!  Anyone have any info or a manual handy???

It's a disk-only driver (not in ROM), so you'll need an install disk. I've got 2 versions for the A1200 SCSI Dataflyer, but I don't know if they'll work with the card you're using. Let me know if you want to give them a try.

EDIT: This will probably help.

I got the disk DATAFLYER_IDE.DMS from that site and there is no driver on the disk!  Only a prep tool and it says A600/1200 install or something like that!  No device drivers... Anyone have it?

The other Dataflyer disks there have ExpXDS.device on them, but they seem to be pretty specific to 600/1200/4000 use. Are you sure that's the driver you need? Specficially, which Dataflyer do you have? Got a BBoAH link?

I have the Zorro II card that has IDE only on it.  Has the option for SCSI but its not setup for it.  Missing chips, header etc.  Here is the Link.

Grab the install disk here: amiga.resource.cx/exp/dataflyer2000plus

The card is autobooting, see the largest chip on the card marked as "auto-boot": amiga.resource.cx/photos/dataflyer2000plus,DataFlyerPlusIDE ;)
