Well I finally have my A500 with #PiStorm & #Emu68 working. It's been a hell of a mission without a Windows machine to set the SD card up.

Happy to have set the HD up myself, not using someone else's presets, but it was incredibly frustrating.

Images show the purple PiStorm card over the CPU connected to a Raspberry Pi 3B+ which is too big but I don't have a 3A. Hijacking Denise is a Framethrower, hijacking Gary is my RAM expansion board.

My DF0 doesn't work, so booting from DF1.

Emu68 provides proper WiFi access. Installation was tough, but I got decent help on the PiStorm Discord.

ErMaGerd ... after 1.5 years of waiting #emu68 1.1 , the complete rewrite of the #Amiga #pistorm accelerators JIT kernel has a pre-alpha release !!!! https://github.com/michalsc/Emu68/releases
Which means my olde computer will be more fantastic just with that free update ! ... Michal Schulz, get ready to be patreonated.
Edit: Well I got 5 to 15% faster on my #MameMinimix port, I expected better, but well that is still interesting. It makes the few games too slow to play a bit more playable (Mortal Kombat, BubBobble2 & Taitof3 games, was 50% speed and got near 70% on my non overclocked setup). Thunderblade ceased to work ! (no idea why , not necessarily the update fault. )

Super, funktioniert überhaupt nicht. 😩 Mit dem VideoCore 1.3 geht zwar der FrameThrower, aber alle RTG-Modi sind weg. Mit älteren VideoCores geht seit Emu68 v1.0.7 gar nichts mehr. Ganz toll...

Auch super, dass man nun die alten Emu68-tools nicht mehr runterladen kann, seit es Release 1.0.0 gibt. Kann also auch den alten Stand nicht mehr wiederherstellen.
