Re: Emulate Floppy with a Raspberry Pi ?
Ah! /me i should really read the text :oops: Very interesting!

Re: Emulate Floppy with a Raspberry Pi ?

Re: Emulate Floppy with a Raspberry Pi ?
Although the RPi has a lot of power, I am not sure it is fast enough (latency) to deal with the Dragon bus on its GPIO pins. Maybe if you run it "bare metal" without any OS. Found some GPIO benchmarks here: http://codeandlife.com/2012/07/03/benchmarking-raspberry-pi-gpio-speed/ Interesting is the l...

Re: Emulate Floppy with a Raspberry Pi ?
Whether it'd be worth all the effort (vs. an HxC emulator, Drivewire, or any of the other methods of loading program's into a Dragon) For a HxC emulator you need a disk controller... Maybe the Raspberry Pi can also replace this?!?! One effort is, that RPi is a complete PC with a small size/power co...
