Re: Sam460LE 1.10 Ghz Pre-Order!

@SinanSam460

do you have the x86 Bios Emulator (in Video Options) set to SLOW by any chances ?

In this case just select Fast or Medium, you shold be able to boot again with your RX550 (or set x86emu to 1 from the u-boot shell)

@PixelHi

The board will come with a SD card (and a CD as well) to install AmigaOS4.1, and the primary boot source is set to SD.

There is also a newer U-Boot version with improved support for Radeon 2xx series (for example R7 250 etc...)

@kas1e

regarding the boot delay, the following uboot env variables can be set:

boota_timeout 1
menuboot_delay 1

directly from the uboot console or from the menu, under Boot Sequence / OS Multiboot Options

as for usb/kvm keyboard support, I have a new preliminary version of uboot that fixes compatibility problems with some keyboard models, I don't know if it can help with your kvm problems.

Are you saying that booting the Sam460 is faster from an SD card than from an SSD?

Yes, loading kickstart modules is faster ! Use at least a C10 or U1 or V10 Class SD card

Edit: using the last Uboot 2015.a with EHCI support

So at least with booting speed, sam460 surely won.

If you need an even faster boot on your Sam460, use a SD card as boot partition

yes, there are 4x usb ports at the back, and we also moved the SD card reader to the back

Given the current situation of the availability of electronic components and their cost, the fewer components on the board, the better

@kas1e

I suggest you to:

- put back the 3512 board
- attach the SSD to the upper port (or the one where uboot find it)
- set the following uboot env var form the console:

setenv sii3512ide_conf 10
saveenv

and then reboot
It seems the aos4.1 driver can't decide what kind of device is attached, this way we force it

is there any info on the debug output when AOS4.1 start the siixxxx_ide.device?

AFAIK the Sam460 fits inside that case.

And what is funnier, after I touch a few times radiator on the CPU it just .. peeled off !! And i see under it some strange piece of paper :) what is it for ?:) Probably I need now to use some new thermal paste without that "paper" between cpu and radiator ..

You need to put the CPU fan (which you'll find in the motherboard box) on the radiator, it's mandatory !

With sam460, I have just VESA: OK, and no prompt. So, should I when sam460 boots, hit "ESC" or something and hit some buttons to have uboot promt?

Remove both gfx card and keyboard and boot.
On the serial console you'll see the uboot prompt.
Type 'print' to list all the env vars, and check if boot1 or boot2 or boot3 is set to 'usb'.
If so, you can boot from a usb stick, just use win32diskimager to burn the aos4.1 install iso on the usb stick.
Put back the gfx card and the keyboard, insert the usb stick and boot. after a few second the aos41.1 logo should display.

Does this problem also apply to sam440? Because several people couldn't get any GPU (newer than HD6xxx) to work on SAM440.

Yes, the problem is similar.

Shouldn't the keyboard's num lock work even if i have no bootable device attached and have no uboot shown?

you can use a serial terminal connect to the Sam460 instead of a keyboard (115200 baud, 8N1)

You will have to make it easier for people to get new Sam460cr's up and running

You are right! I've identified what's the problem with newer Radeon Bios card under U-boot on the Sam boards, but ATM I didn't find any solution about it.

@kas1e

About the 'glue': it's a last minute modification to allow the boards to work on modern ATX power supplies.
Basically what happen ? the 'cr' board have less onboard components then the 'ex' version, and its power consumption is very very low, and some/many PSU basically don't sense any load and: or they don't start at all or they give not stable output, which in turn create stability issues.
The two resistors you see are there for increasing the power load, they are not there for 'repair'.
Next batch will have this (and other minimal modifications) directly onboard.
