Save changes and soft-reboot the Amiga (it will boot up from the install floppy again). Change the device names of the partitions if you wish. Create another partition of the rest of the space. 80MB is plenty of space (AmgiaOS 3.1 takes up 2.8MB fully installed). Remove the second partition, and set the size of the first to something large enough for AmigaOS. Return to the main window (click the “OK” buttons). Use “Change Drive Type”, “Define New…” and then “Read Configuration”. Run HDToolBox from RAM:, and you will see a new unknown disk. Change the tooltype SCSI_DEVICE_NAME (to vice). Copy HDToolBox from HDTools (put it on the RAM-disk). Workbench will load from the installation disk. (and start with stopping it if it’s running, “killall -9 emulator” or use systemctl if you have followed my instructions on setting it up as a service) Insert the amiga-os-310-install floppy and start up the emulator: The bs (block size) of 504k gives the piStorm the optimal number of heads (16) and blocks per track (63) on auto-detecting the hard drive geometry. piscsi0 must always be used by any disk, otherwise, you will get an empty list of drives in HDToolBox.Īfter saving the changes, go ahead and create an empty hdf for the installation:ĭd if=/dev/zero of=/home/pi/amiga-files/system_31.hdf bs=504k count=1000

It’s also important to use a the first available free SCSI id here (piscsi 0), as there is a unique feature in piscsi that hides all drives configured following a gap in the SCSI id sequence, so that they won’t be seen in HDToolBox. Start by setting up the piStorm configuration for using the correct ROM and for enabling hard drive support:Ĭopy the configuration template “pistorm/default.cfg” to “/home/pi/cfg/a1200_4068_os31.cfg”, then change/add: I have renamed the kickstart file to “kick-31-a1200-40.68.rom” and then put it in my “amiga-files” folder on the pi. The file you want is the “amiga-os-310-a1200.rom”. You also need the kickstart ROM from the same base folder (“System” or “Shared”). Look for the adf files in the “Amiga files/System/adf” or “Amiga files/Shared/adf” folder.

These disks are available from your legally acquired Amiga Forever Plus Edition (or above), any release from 2008 (my oldest one) and up is recent enough. With “floppy”/”disk” (or drive) in this guide, any Amiga compatible replacement, such as a GoTek drive with Flashfloppy, can be used.įor a basic AmigaOS 3.1 installation, have these disks (in this order) available.

This is part of what I did to make it possible to switch config files using the keyboard attached to the Pi ( Linux: how to run commands by keypress on the local console).Īmiga-related files (kickstart and hdf) are stored in /home/pi/amiga-files At start of the emulator, the actual config is copied as “default.cfg” and put into /home/pi. The main reason is its availability, in reach for everyone through Amiga Forever Plus edition, and also because its low amount of installation disks (6 disks needed, instead of 17 or similar for 3.2).Ĭonfiguration files are given a descriptive name and put into /home/pi/cfg. Installation of AmigaOS 3.1 on a small hard driveįor this installation, I have choosen AmigaOS 3.1 for several reasons. The important thing is that the paths in the configuration is set to the same. It’s meant as a quickstart for those who not at this time want to explore all the possibilities the piStorm gives.īe sure to put the files (kickstart and hdf) in the right location on the SD-card, whatever you want, or follow my directions and put them in /home/pi/amiga-files. This article will probably repeat some points in the piStorm – basic configuration guide.
