Pi1541 and JiffyDOS = corrupt files?

[Calab]

I have a flat C128 machine with a JiffyDOS C128 and C64 kernel. I don't have the stock kernel, unfortunately. Connected to this machine is a Pi1541, using a Pi 3B+.  If I put the stock 1541 ROM onto the Pi1541, everything works as it should. Programs load properly (even Ghosts & Goblins), but at stock 1541 speeds.  If I place a JiffyDOS 1541 ROM image on the Pi1541, most of my attempts to load a file, or even get a directory listing fail with corrupted data.

 

I assume the issue is with the Pi1541, but could be the JiffyDOS ROM that I have installed. I don't have any EPROMs I can use to try and create another EPROM, unfortunately. I have tried multiple power supplies and multiple serial cables.

Are there any common issues on the Pi1541 that could corrupt data like in the second photo below?

I don't have any of those errors when using a JiffyDOS equipped pi1541's with my JiffyDOS C128's.
What firmware version of pi1541 are you using?
Option A or option B design?
Can you share your options.txt so that I can try to reproduce it on my units?

I don't remember the firmware version, but I think it's 1.24. There are no dates on the version on the Pi1541 website, so it's hard to guess when they came out.

 

Option B design.

 

I was going to share an image of the whole SD card, so I just made up a small one using some of the files from my original SD card. For some reason, this new card is working with 1541-II DOS and 1541-II JiffyDOS.  Either the original SD card is failing somehow, or the Pi1541 is being corrupted by one of the files that I didn't move to the new card.

 

Bottom line is that I think I found the fix (Use a fresh SD card). I'm currently building a new SD card with all the same software as the original.

Well, I filled the new card and now it is experiencing the same issue as before. I will ZIP an image of it and post here later today.
