| Hi, all, I got my Vampire 4 today, tried to flash both Coffin 55 and and Coffin 54 on SD card but it only show picture of SD-card and say it want FAT16/32 formatted SD-card with "kick.rom". I put kick.rom (3.1 for Amiga 4000) on root on SD card with help of WinUAE, but it still say the same. Is probably not FAT format on SD-card though, but I thought Coffin image would work out of the box. Then I realized, on my Vampire V500V2+ I cannot boot from SD-card so I think is perhaps same with V4. So do I have to disassemble my Vampire 4 and put Flash/SD-card adapter on hd header in order to boot?

| At this present time, yes you do. Right now the SD Card in the back is used only for transferring files. Multiple formats are accepted but I have mine set to Fat32 formatted from Windows.

| V4 reads Fat32 SD card on boot. Still can't be used for OS loading but can be used to maprom the kick.rom file from SD, if present

| Hello Maria, please ping us on IRC. Normally all V4 owners should have invited to a special support channel to provide them with all info and help.

| I ordered SD to IDE 44-pin adapter now. I have one like that on my Vampire in my A2000, it works good. Prefer SD card over CF card because is easier to get hold of and I have loads of 32GB SD cards since before.
