so After replacing the rom with a 3.1 it is working, but i am having issues with the ide.
i have tried re-flashing different versions of the tf530 firmware, i have tried an hdd as well as a cf adapter with cf card.
With the diagrom in and any combination it will freeze when doing a hdd check.
I have used the cf in winuae with no issues.
the funny thing is I can get it to load workbench, i copied over 1.3 to it in winuae, put it in the computer and after 2 - 4 min it will boot to workbench.
so i tried installing hdload games, nothing seemed to load it would freeze at the startup screen.
one time i loaded lemmings and left the room I came back to it loaded. It looks like it is loading but just incredibly slow. like 10x slower then floppy.
I am not sure what to look at next.

Re: Slow TF530 IDE
You have installed the INT2 wire? Without the this wire you get the symptoms you describe on the TF530.

Re: Slow TF530 IDE
It was a bad solder joint on the board side int2 pin.
I think I was excited when I was finishing putting it together and botched it.
works great.
Thanks for the answer!

Re: Slow TF530 IDE
This thread is gold. I experienced the same issue after upgrading from Kick 1.3 to 3.1.4.
I was happy that the device would now autoboot, but for some reason it was terribly, extreeemly slow.
INT2 line installed - taadaa! Works.
Out of curiosity, how are scsi.device and INT2 related? Why did I not experience the same issue under Kick1.3 with the ide.device device driver?
Other than that: I totally see now why the TF536 needed to be born: after booting to workbench (with FASTROM) there's barely 600kb of fastmem left with Kick 3.1.4 and TF530.

Re: Slow TF530 IDE
Probably not an interrupt driven driver like the 3.1 one.
