Re: Emulate Floppy with a Raspberry Pi ?

Very interesting! I hope you get more information from the guy.

Again, this looks like a serial (one data line) floppy drive interface. The floppy drive is emulated, not the controller.

Re: RSS feed of forum?

Re: disassembled Dragon 32 ROM ?

I updated the Makefile so that it works with lwasm from LWTOOLS. I confirmed it builds a 100% identical Dragon 32 ROM image.

Re: disassembled Dragon 32 ROM ?

Wow, there you go. Was this available on the internet somewhere?

Can we modify and redistribute this freely? Then we are all set.

Re: DLOAD resurrected for Dragon 32 (at 57600 baud)

Yes, the DLOAD server I found (originally from Burt Mitchell) might have its roots from the 80's as well. I have read somewhere that DLOAD for instance was used in classrooms with a multiplexer switch to connect the teacher's computer to each of the student computers in turns. The part in this artic...

Re: The Dragon32 Snapshot Cassette Program (TM)

I'm taking the full memory snapshot from 0x000-0xC000 from a dragon and loading it into a un-modded coco. That's very clever! If I had 64 KB RAM I would have liked to play with doing it the other way around (running CoCo software on my Dragon). By the way, does anyone know if I can disable the BASI...

Re: disassembled Dragon 32 ROM ?

Here's my (bash) script for the tackling the Dragon 64 (32K mode) ROM - pretty sure Tormod's gone and marked up far more than what's in here though: http://www.6809.org.uk/tmp/da/tools/dasm_d64.sh The Dragon 32 ROM is mostly similar... Thanks for that script! No, I had only made a minimal version o...
