USB and SD storage

[Peter Onion]

Time to get my soldering iron out again.  The arrival of latest RomWBW seems like a good time to try some different storage options.

Can anyone that has built the SD-card board tell me what link(s) need to be put on the Base Port jumpers on the board as I can't find any info about them.

Thanks,

Hi Peter,

Since the SD Card Module emulates the IDE Module, it should be strapped for I/O Address 0x10.  On the module, this is marked P16 (decimal 16 == hex 10).  Jumper the third set of pins from the left.

Thanks, Wayne

Thanks Wayne.

SD-card board worked first time :-) 

Now to integrate the driver for my RC2350 based graphics card into the HBIOS in RomWBW 3.6 and reacquaint myself with building a custom ROM.

I realised the USB and the SD-CARD boards can be used at the same time, thus providing a useful way to back up your CP/M drives without having to use a modern machine to read the sdcard or USB stick.
