BusLogic SCSI AHA-1540B mode BIOS no longer works — at Version 1

Description (last modified by rak1)

The BusLogic SCSI adapter, when in AHA-1540B mode, no longer boots (or, it seems, allows any disk access via BIOS calls such as use in DOS fdisk) in 7.0.x. This worked in 6.1.44-156814-Win and doesn't work as of 7.0.0-153978-Win.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Configure a machine with BusLogic SCSI storage with at least one hard disk
  2. Set the BusLogic SCSI adapter to AHA-1540B mode

$ VBoxManage setextradata 'Your VM Name' VBoxInternal/Devices/buslogic/0/Config/AdapterType AHA-1540B

  1. Boot the VM. At the BIOS splash screen press F12 to select boot device.

Expected:

  • The detected hard disks list shows the hard disk

Actual:

  • No hard disks found
