Hi.... I am wondering what the best aproach is, when I have my full Amiga HDD install in an image file, and want to reflash it with the use of EMU68? The flasher tool deletes any partition before writing, and that is no good, as I will loose the EMU68 FAT32 partition when flashing. Though I use Linux and not Windows, but I suspect that partition management is basically same aproach.
@drunken1079
@drunken1079 Год назад
@@brostenen On Linux its quite easy : flash or partition the card normally (a fat32 partition, then a type 0x76 partition) then dd your hdd image to the second partition :) e.g. 'dd if=myimage.hdf of=/dev/sdb2 bs=4096' assuming sdb is your card reader, sdb2 is then the second (0x76 type) partition on that card..
@brostenen
@brostenen Год назад
@@drunken1079 Cool. But what if that image file with my Amiga HDD contains 3 or 4 partitions? Can an Amiga filesystem survive, when I move it with G-Parted? And then create the FAT32 and finally copy the EMU68 software onto that?
@drunken1079
@drunken1079 Год назад
@@brostenen Just dd the entire hdd image into the 0x76 partition, the amiga partitioning will be kept. the 0x76 type tells the emu68 sd driver that this partition should be treated like a full harddisk. Moving amiga partitions within the 0x76 with gparted will probably wont work, but dd'ing a existing amiga harddisk image, even with multiple amiga partions in it, is how i use emu68 too

@@drphilxr yeah I don’t really do the demos or games. As for the 060s without FPU. I’ve said this before, you’re really better off getting a FPU/Ram card for the A1200. IF, you’re more interested in apps and not games. Why? Two main reasons. It’s near the same speed as a softFPU 060. For those programs that use FPU, it will actually be faster than the softFPU 060.

New fab process. The author uses TF1230 from I gathered. PiStorm is a toss board. In terms of software compatibility, everything runs with real hardware out of 1000s of games and programs I've used.

Just bagged a Pistorm form my 1200 so this video has been/will be super useful to me so appreciate you making it. Always informative and fun to watch you stuff! Now I'm no expert, but I was curious as to why there was no disk access speed up with the speed of this thing? I only ask because on my Apollo 1260s and TF1260 when over clocked there is a speed up with them. Like taking my TF1260 from 50mhz, then gradually to 100mhz there is definitely an increase in disk speed. It's not tonnes but it happens. I'd have thought the pistorm speed alone would have seen it go up 1mb or 2.

I think I missed a step here. When you tested just the Pistorm with your existing CF card over built-in IDE, you needed the 500MB Emu68 system but when you tested Caffeine OS, you used the pre-made image blasted onto another SD card. Does it already include a separate partition for the Emu68 stuff? While I do like the idea of these optimized systems, I feel they're way too customized for my liking....just like AmiKit from way back. So if I wanted to build my own AmigaOS system but also take advantage of the faster storage speed, I would just partition the remainder of my SD card that contains the Emu68 boot partition?

There clear case made for the A500 has a side cover for the left that has places to connect ethernet, microSD slot extension, and USB I think. There's probably also a printable side cover on thingaverse for it. As for height, if you solder the pistorm onto your pi, you will save some height so you can get your cover on. I'm not sure if you can get more height by putting shorter pins into the pistorm, or the ethernet jack will hit something anyways. Yeah, all of this is still not as nice as the back panel on the A1200 though. I wish someone made a single board sidecar for the A500 with a case that would leave the microSD accessible from the top.

This Dell supports 15-31Khz and 50-72Hz and 5:4. Also, you'll lose compatibility of about 40% of games. Some of these can be fixed with cache entries in the .ini file but the list of incompatible titles is glaringly large. Ideally, only go PiStorm if you're interested in desktop/RTG productivity. Even there, it crashes in unexpected places. The project as a whole needs a lot of work, which will only continue so long as demand persists.

Holly smokes. Do I smell a Vampire killer here? I was very hesitant to get an ICE Drake 1200 for 450$+ but jumped right on this one. I don't understand what "lite" means in the Pistorm32 means. Is there supposed to be another version?

​@@ChrisEdwardsRestorationIt seems they also raised the IceDrake V4 to 500...Euros (600 with VAT). A few years ago when I got the Vampire V2 for my A500 they even charged me for VAT (Where they Shouldn't). I could spend $250 on AmigaKIT for a refurb A1200 motherboard for my spare A1200 case/keyboard and will still not be close. Retropaassion sells the Pistorm32 1200 for 120 UK Pounds. This is a hell of a good deal from Amigakit.

Lite means there will be an add on board to carry a CM4 and NVME drive.

The original PiStorm32 development was for a board to directly take a Pi Compute Module 4 with connectors for various CM4 features. Due to the reduced availability of PI boards the lite version was designed to take the wider range of boards with the 40 pin header. An adapter will allow a CM4 to be used with the lite version.
