Hi,
Hes got to get the jumpers right. Then he has to prep the
hard disk with the gvp disk. It is as simple as that.
Naturally both cards cannot autoboot, only one should be
set up as that.
I have the exact cards and both work fine.
I also have commodore 68030 board for which i paid some
good coin. offers are welcome. it is fully working and
capable of running Amix and Amiga OS. If you have 2091 and
would provide a blank hard disk, I would be willing to
install Amix.
