ACube Systems: UBoot 2015.d for Sam440ep flex and mini-itx
Pressemitteilung Bassano del Grappa, Italy - 14 April 2025
ACube Systems is pleased to announce a new release of the U-Boot firmware for its Sam440 line of motherboards.
Following the recent update for the Sam460 (amiga-news.de reported), the Sam440 now also benefits from enhanced support, including compatibility with NVMe SSDs. Additionally, this update introduces support for Radeon RX and Radeon HD graphics cards.
This release represents a significant investment of time and resources. Nevertheless, we have chosen to offer it at the symbolic price of ¤3.99.
Highlights of this release include:
- Support for Radeon RX graphics cards (*)
- Improved support for Radeon HD graphics cards (*)
- NVMe SSD driver: boot directly from NVMe devices using a PCIe adapter (*)
- Driver for the PCIe SATA2 Silicon Image 3132 controller, with support for booting from SSDs and DVDs (*)
- Enhanced RAM access speed on Sam440ep-flex boards
- New graphical interface style
- Revised sata command, now displaying more detailed information about drivers and connected devices
- Serial console improvements: menu navigation via the W (up) and S (down) keys
- General bug fixes and overall improvements
- Unified source code for the 460ex and 440ep platforms
Features marked with an asterisk (*) require a PCI-to-PCIe bridge.
Radeon RX and Radeon HD graphics cards also require a specific driver (to be sold separately by A-EON Technology once available) for use with AmigaOS 4.
The update is available through our online store.
For those not comfortable performing the update themselves, we also offer pre-programmed, fully updated U-Boot chips.
Additional Information: UBoot makes use of GPL-licensed code and is therefore released under the terms of the GPL (download of UBoot source code, download of Parthenope source code). (dr)
