Hi,

Can't make PPIDE work on N8 (4314).

I add to my config file

PPIDEENABLE .SET TRUE ; PPIDE: ENABLE PARALLEL PORT IDE DISK DRIVER (PPIDE.ASM)
PPIDE0A8BIT .SET TRUE ; PPIDE 0A (MASTER): 8 BIT XFER
PPIDE0B8BIT .SET TRUE ; PPIDE 0B (SLAVE): 8 BIT XFER
PPIDE0BASE .SET $80 ; PPIDE 1: PPI REGISTERS BASE ADR

I'm use some previous tested CF's with CF-IDE adapter, different tested ppi 8255. Double check all signal and pcb track.
also added wait states on IO and memory.
Without a result. The card is not determined at the start. Sometimes with different errors.
The question arose when I didn't find a file .\Doc\Testing Notes.txt
mention of the testing of the ppide. there's only this:

N8-2312 (X)
-------
- Test ASCI driver
- Test SD driver (CSIO mode)
- Test FD driver
- Test FDU app
- Test TMS driver (video & kbd)

Please say should PPIDE work on N8 with this BIOS ?

Thanks
Andrii
