1)the last firmware 1.7.2 is updated from 1.6
2)yes about jumper try everything position and different machine on amiga atari stfm msx
( sd card fat32 with files in root

on amiga i do that (A500 A600 with cables of amiga)

copy/replace HXCSDFE.CFG to your sdcard.
copy AUTOBOOT.HFE to your sdcard.
(Note: it is recommended to copy these 2 files right after having formatted the SDCard)
If your emulator is set as DF0 you must use AUTOBOOT.HFE present in the Emulator_as_DF0 folder.
If your emulator is set as DF1 you must use AUTOBOOT.HFE present in the Emulator_as_DF1 folder.
and i convert files in hfe

on atari(1040 stfm tos 1.4 and with cables of it)
copy/replace HXCSDFE.CFG to your sdcard.
copy AUTOBOOT.HFE to your sdcard.
and i convert files in hfe
but nothing

sorry, to say to that , but before posting such a accusation, you should really take into account, it is not possible You get emul like this ? why ?

step 1: i assembly device
step 2: i connect to amiga
step 3: i plug sd card - flash PIC, do some wr/rd tests
step 4: i PULL OUT FLOPPY CABLE
step 5: i pack device

so, if all works in step 3 , there is no other option for me to breake, damage pin.

anyway, take some tool (small) like

and pull it out GENTLE
