A1200 Internal IDE drive not found with 1.4.2
Can someone please help me with getting NetBSD 1.4.2 to recognise my internal
IDE
harddisk on my A1200?
I previously had installed NetBSD 1.3 and had no problems with that whatsoever,
during installation or use (I installed 1.3 just over a year ago). This
detected and used
my harddisk straight away (I had partitioned with HDToolbox the drive as per
install guidelines).
I have an Amiga 1200 with Blizzard IV accelerator (68030 @ 50Mhz, with MMU, no
FPU)
with 32Mb of 32-bit RAM. It's a Samsung 3.2Gb IDE drive, set up as Master (it's
the only
device on the internal IDE interface). I don't have any other harddisks or
additional
hardware.
The problem is when I try to load it up initially using
loadbsd -b netbsd
after having first done xstreamtodev (I've repeated this exact same procedure
with
1.3 and this version worked)
The bootup status it prints to the screen is all normal until it gets to the IDE
initialisation.

It seems that 1.4.2 is looking at the wrong point in the A1200 memory map for
the
harddisk (I think).
Does anyone know how I can get it to recognise the IDE drive, or do they have a
kernel compiled (1.4.2) that works on A1200 IDE drive?
I'd be very grateful if anyone could help me out!
Thanks,
