Hi,
some bug reports…

“2.2 Update
If you want to update your port then get an updated Portfile (see above) and issue the following commands (from the directory containing the Portfile):

> sudo port uninstall opencbm
> sudo port instal”
This second would be “> sudo port install”

Another problem encountered…
“Download one of these Portsfiles into this directory:
The most recent Portfile found in OpenCBM’s Git Repository
The Portsfile of the ZoomFloppy v2.0 Release (31.12.2011)
The Portsfile of the ZoomFloppy v1.0 Release (30.1.2011)”
I’ve obtained some errors with my OS X Leopard… the working way is to install before “The most recent Portfile found in OpenCBM’s Git Repository” and later others ZoomFloppy Portfiles.

Greetings from Hokuto Force!

Dumb question… how do I ‘launch’ OpenCBM from a new Terminal window (after restarting my computer)?

My Terminal window looks like this:

Fixed it Just had to re-install opencbm from the GIT. Nate helped out in a great way over there at the Google usergroup. Thanks for your works, it’s very appreciated!

Hi Chris,

thanks for the great docs =) I ran into an similar error like the one Paul reported – just vice versa

% cbmctrl status 8
xum1541 firmware version too high (7 > 6)
please update your OpenCBM plugin

I had no luck in finding a newer version of the plugin. Any hints what to do now?

Unbelievable — this is the only useful openCBM/zoomFloppy tutorial on the entire internet. And for OSX, no less. Thanks for taking the time.

Hi Paul,

yes the error messages tells you that the openCBM binaries require a newer firmware.
Just download and build Nate’s firmware upgrade tool from his page: xum1541.
I’ll update the page to mention this procedure…

I just got a ZoomFloppy and installed the software listed here. After a few tries, I got it compiled. (might be easier to provide binaries!!)

Anyway, now I’m getting an error about firmware too low.

% cbmctrl status 8
xum1541 firmware version too low (6 < 7)
please update your xum1541 firmware

Does the ZoomFloppy need to be updated?

So sorry to bother you again. Couldn’t get the FD-2000 to work correctly but work around it just by transferring files to 1541 disc and then to d64 images and then using fcopy+ program from CMD to copy files to d71 or d81 images. The only problem is that the REL files I have , fcopy+ won’t copy. Any reason why you think I am having this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I did get zoomfloppy configured to work with a 1571 finally. Will it work with a CMD FD-2000 drive? I seem to be having some problems with that so far.

Thanks for any help anyone can give me with this.
