I'd like that disk file.  I haven't run davex in years.  I have a 
hard drive for my 2e, but not sure what I did with the scsii 
control card for it.  Thanks

Send file to
butchb at fairpoint.net
or wa0vjr at gmail.com

First, I do know that a different controller is needed, although 
I don't
think it's in slot 6. If I remember correctly, it's recommended 
to put
it in slot 7, but I could be wrong. The controller you need is 
the
CFFA2, which I believe is a compact flash reader. Your disk image 
needs
to have the ProDOS operating system on it. I recommend the Davex 
shell
with ProDOS Textalker added. I have a floppy image of such a disk 
if you
need it.


My problem is that although I have set up a CFFA2 controller, I 
haven't
yet been able to specify a hard disk image on the MAME command 
line.
Everything I read tells me to specify -hard1 <filename> on the 
command
line, or to specify the hard disk image in apple2ee.ini, but 
neither
boots from the hard disk image, and I'm not able to see my hard 
disk
image when I load my Davex floppy either.
