AROS: GUI for configuring SMB2/3-Shares
As Paolo Besser, author of the AROS distribution Icaros Desktop writes in his latest blog entry, he has programmed a simple graphical tool for configuring shares in LUA for the new SMB2 handler in order to add new shares to the AROS environment. It is not intended to be a full-fledged manager, but it already performs the rather simple task of adding new device definition files to Devs:DOSDrivers. Unless a more comprehensive configuration tool is written by someone else, he will include it in the next Icaros versions.

DIY project: Building an Amiga 2000 (part 6)
'Drygol' is a member of the demoscene group Lamers and basically deals with retro computers in the form of restorations, upgrades etc. On his site Retrohax.net he not only offers various retro articles, but also runs a blog. Among other things he describes there his project 'Tesseract', the building of an Amiga 2000 from scratch with all maximum modifications. His project is based on the GitHub project of 'Floppie209', a replica of the Amiga2000 motherboard with Sprint layout. After the first five reports (1, 2, 3, 4, 5), today he has published part 6 which is about the repair of a defective Indivision ECS v2 and the installation of an FPU in the ACA1233n.

DIY: 2,5-inch IDE-SSD
As reported by hackster.io, Collin "dosdude1" Mistr has released the second in a series of open-source solid-state drive (SSD) upgrades for vintage computer hardware. A 1.8-inch ZIF design is now followed by a 2.5-inch IDE SSD compatible with any device that normally uses a 2.5-inch IDE hard drive or a 3.5-inch IDE hard drive with a simple adapter (YouTube video). So it should also be possible to use it in the Amiga 1200 or Amiga 4000.

ACube Systems: First batch of Sam460LE boards shipped - second delayed
Press release - January 29, 2023
Dear customers,
We have sent out as many boards as we could prepare.
Unfortunately, we received from our suppliers some faulty Ethernet controllers and therefore some boards failed the stress tests.
This will create a delay in the delivery of the remaining Sam460LE. :-(
The replacement Ethernet controllers will arrive in mid-February, after Chinese New Year.
Again, we will perform our extensive testing because we would rather not release a poor product.
We apologize for yet another delay caused by companies that do not play fair.
We will keep you informed.
Thank you.
The ACube Systems Team
