Small help with finishing the aha154x on PCem

Post by SA1988 »

I'm in the process of finishing it for inclusion on PCem, but while testing DOS drivers as well as NT ones, it just goes on nuts with the MBIF interrupt bit set.
If anyone has some knowledge of this adapter then please help me complete the Mailbox stuff.

here are the files with the code inside:
src_154x.7z
Source files for the aha154x for PCem, for testing

Offtopic: I think there should be a section for helping the main devs with future additions to the emulator, so that it can be more complete :)

No problem! The admin will probably move it. I apreciate people who contribute to this great emulator! I wish I knew programming :roll:
Oh well... Is you proyect a SCSI adapter? What would be the use in the emulator? To transfer files from the host OS? Use external hardware, like scanners, external HDDs?

The main purpose of adding this SCSI adapter is for operating systems that don't like IDE CD-ROMs too much, like NT 3.1 and probably some others, like NeXTStep 3.1 for x86.
