I know that this is probably not the best place to ask this question, but I've been going down the proverbial "rabbit hole" (sic) for several days now trying to get my two Zulus working. I read through this thread thoroughly, I've read the GitHub documentation pages as well as the "Zulu Manual", and I've even looked in on a few Amiga clubs. I think I understand how the Zulu devices work, I've had a lot of experience with SCSI since the 90s, and I currently have several SCSI2SD implementations running. My application is in using the Zulus with Kurzweil K2xxx synthesizer/samplers with SCSI interfaces, not with attaching them to M68000-based computers. From my perspective, SCSI is SCSI so the host system shouldn't be of much concern since the host Kurzweils work fine with any SCSI device I have ever attached to them. So, like the SCSI2SD packages, I assume that once everything is properly configured, the Kurzweil OS sees the ZuluSCSI as a SCSI HDD and doesn't "care" that is is an emulator. In reading from all of the sources I have inferred that everything that is needed to allow the emulator to perform is tied to a filename and, apparently, the contents of the file. In practical application I know what an .img file is and I have played around with them in the past for various reasons. However, I have no idea about how I would go about creating one from scratch, and what it would need to include so that it would allow the SD card to function as an emulated 2GB SCSI HDD. Fufthermore, I have never heard of or played with an HDA file before, nor do I know how to create one of those, either. To make matters even more different for me, I am, pretty much, tied to Windows systems and I would most like to get access to the card using Windows 7 (that I use for things that might require applications that will no longer run on Windows 10). If it makes any difference, I recently acquired a Mac Mini M1, but I'm guessing that won't do me much more good than any of my Windows machines. Anyway, I know this is probably much more fundamental that the kinds of things that are being discussed here by M68000 "pros", but I can't believe that I would be the only person who was flummoxed by the realization that they didn't have the knowledge necessary to enact what appears to be a simple and straightforward set of instructions.
Thanks in advance,
John
