I've replied on FB but for completeness and historical recording I'll put it
here too. Granted the PC currently in use is a 32bit XP machine so I could
make sure everything was working on a real 16550 UART before going over to
the USB adapter but I'll try a win 7 64bit machine when I get the chance.
My adapter is a clone one with the CH340 chipset used and abused on arduino
clones so I already had the driver package, it was discovered as COM4.
Fire up ADTPro via the .bat file, go to serial setup to make sure COM4 is
selected along with '//c with imagewriter cable' then plug in the //c and
boot to the ] prompt followed by:
IN#2
<CTRL-A>14B
On the PC go to 'bootstrapping -> ProDOS -> speediboot' and hit OK...up
she
comes.
I've just seen a message from David Schmidt, if anyone knows why yours
doesn't work he will given that he wrote ADTPro in the first place :)
Cheers
