In early 2024, Robert Smith used his DaynaPORT driver to create a SANA II driver for the Amiga based on Lukas F. Hartmann's MNT ZZ9000 network driver and using the BlueScsi v2 WIFI version to enable the Amiga to access the Internet.

Now, with version 1.0 of BlueSCSIUI, he has released a user interface for BlueSCSI for AmigaOS 2.0 and higher that supports configuration and diagnosis of the DynaPORT driver.

A new video where I look at installing Photogenics for the Amiga using original floppies.

How does this pan out? 🤔



I also take a look at functionality in Photogenics and leave it for you to decide, was this Photoshop for the Amiga?

New #BlueSCSI release https://github.com/BlueSCSI/BlueSCSI-v2/releases/tag/v2025.07.07

Highlights:
* USB<>SCSI Bridge
* USB Thumb Drive Mode
* SD Bootloader
* 200MHz default
* Auto Buttons on all HW
* FAST20 speed
* Interactive console

I'll highlight a few of them in this post:

USB<>SCSI Bridge

If you were holding on to those rare and expensive USB<>SCSI bridges for your retirement fund, sorry! Now your BlueSCSI can do it with a one line config.

First person to boot Windows off a Quantum Fireball SCSI drive over this gets a prize!

USB Thumb Drive Mode

It's sometimes annoying to pull out the SD card when you want to edit a config file or copy a small file over - now BlueSCSI acts like a USB thumb drive when connected to a computer and will present the SD card or even the Images to the modern PC.

SD card bootloader

Ya, we let this one go too long, had a bug and wanted to re-do the entire thing but we ended up just adding it back. Update by placing a bin on the sd card.

200MHz default

The Pi Foundation said 200MHz is good and so many project already OverClock way beyond that, we thought we'd catch up now too. Can clock up to 250MHz now too for FAST20 support - up to 18MB/Sec

Auto Buttons on all HW

Ever wanted a button to eject your CD or removable media? Well now you can add it to every hardware rev and no configuration is required!

Lastly this one is mostly for developers (for now) but an interactive console - just type 'h' when connected via a USB Serial program

There's lots more - checkout the release notes! /🧵
