I have a chameleon chip and was wondering if there is a bios out for the ver 1.6 yet? if so where do I find it and what is it called?

not yet

there are a couple of places that have been distributing chips "compatible with v1.6" and use evox m8 even though EvolutionX admitted it was a leaked alpha/beta that should not have been leaked because it can/will kill your box.

could someone with a modchip and 1.6 at least try the latest cromwell which are supposed to be compatible with the new video chip ? It doesn't help in homebrew but at least would proof that the modchip works and that the video code works(which would hopefully help in hacked BIOS development).

isnt the latest cromwell 2.28 dev???

2.31 which has the new video chip support

Evox m8 will work on a 1.6 with your chameleon. You can find it on #xbins. I got it working using the diagram on the ozxodus site. I couldn't get it to work by connecting D0 to the chip, I had to ground it directly to the motherboard to get it to boot the chip.

But did you get it to work without booting from media first??
