I have been working a Tandy TX and been wanting to get an internal (bootable) harddrive going on it.
I have a Trantor T130B scsi (with boot rom) installed and it will not boot from the drive.All the drives are detected and format after i load the trantor drivers but the hardrive will not boot.
I used the TFORMAT program provided and all seemed to go fine. I was able to Partition,Format and transfer system files to the drive but after rebooting the computer hangs after seeking the floppy.
If you put a bootable floppy (with trantor drivers loaded) in before turning on the computer it will boot from floppy just fine and the scsi/harddrives all functional well too. The card also has the boot ROM enabled.
I have also been trying different irq and address settings with no results, although i havent tried them all yet.Im not very good at finding free address settings and such yet, but im trying.
Could this be a TERMPOWER problem?
i havent tried any external drives yet as they could provide termpower
Hardrives are working good but not bootable so im almost there.
if anybody can help it will be great
