I do not know whether I have Qplane. It was assembled by Qubbesoft in 2003.
The you definitely have Qplane
The SGC was plugged into Qubide which was plugged into the backplane. I have
separated them and and tried them in different positions.
As it is now, when I switch on with a floppy disk in flp1_, it goes through the first initionalising stage ignoring the floppy and the F1/F2 selction comes up on the screen. I press F1 and it fires up the floppy wich is a Qpac2 floppy.
I enter load win1_ boot and I can run the boot file from the line after the SMSQ installation and everythig seems to be working.
I did try Aurorql in place of SMSQ but it was the same it stops at the first dot
I have discovered a reason why my display occasionally used to break up and a sharp tap on the case used to cure it, and it seems to be the back plane connection
Ah.
Maybe you haven't got the SMSQ line as something like:
IF ver$<>"HBA":<code to run smsq>:ENDIF
.. and SMSQ is loading repeatedly at every restart.
It sounds from your description above that the qubide is working fine.
