Yeah its obvious theres no support for it, or its broken and wont be fixed as the iyonix is old hardware. so not much i can do about it sadly.

“It seems that Timo was trying to get a Castle SCSI podule to work on a Iyonix a few years back 2020.”
Unfortunately without much luck so I removed it.

Hi All,

I’m trying to get BT working again after I tried a couple of years to get it working. Please find the source code on github :
Github

I develop on a Pi Zero 2W with as compiler the ROOL compiler.

Things working:
-Several enquiries for version numbers of the chip
-Firmware
- HW Reset

The BT chip needs firmware to work and that is not loaded over the SDIO port but over the serial port.

Please note it is very much a project in progress and no guaranties it will be ever finished

The Podule works fine as it works correctly in a RiscPC, i dont have anything to test the voltages sadly. i’m fairly convinced this is a compatibility issue with the Iyonix.

Apologies to anyone who’s having trouble accessing GitLab (and packages.riscosopen.org) at the moment. The server is being heavily overloaded by crawler bots from China. We’re working on blocking these, but it may not be resolved for a day or so.

it doesn’t have a problem seeing whats attached

I think it does have that problem, hence consequent failures. Can you check voltage on the podule?

This is with a CDRW SCSI Drive, same garbage so not just restricted to HardDrives, it doesn’t have a problem seeing whats attached just doesn’t display or configure it correctly
