2x6's DVD or HDD clone to SSD/CF-IDE

[andymage]

Following up to say , SUCCESS!!



8GB SanDisk CF I used: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0017QHZ86?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title



I was successful on the first boot using the StarTech 35BAYCF2IDE , the third one/far right in my picture a few posts ago, set to Master on the Master IDE end. Booted Ace Driver 3.

The ZuluIDE adapter arrived today as well, however I haven't tried testing with it yet. This one is interesting, it has Cable Select as a jumper setting. I may be able to emulate a DVD Rom with this device, we'll see.

Please test Taiko no Tatsujin HDD, Tekken 5 DVD, Tekken 4 DVD, Gundam DVD, Ridge Racer 5 CD

I've only tried so far:

Fate Unlimited Codes - played fine
Ace Driver 3: Final Lap - need to setup my IONA-MP07 JVS I/O to something that matches this game
MotoGP - same as Ace Driver

I have a 246B and a 256, both with JAMMA(B) I/O boards as well as an INOA-MP07 with some custom maps. I have it mapped with Wangan Midnight I/O but it doesn't function with Ace Driver 3 or MotoGP

Been trying Gundam vs Gundam NEXT on the same 8GB CF I have had success with, but with this one the game doesn't fully boot -- hangs at BOOT 02 message. Fate Unlimited Codes was doing similar when it was on too large of a CF card, which makes me think maybe the IMG file I wrote to the CF card is no good. I'll try with the CHD extracted version later today.

As for DVD/CD images, I'm not sure how much luck I'll have with those, the way the CF adapter is read is more like an HDD and not an optical disc ... but I'll try out a few methods to see where I get
