3. Execute Linux commands on the RPi from the Apple II
4. Load binary files directly from the RPi to the II
5. Update Apple II firmware in place from image on RPi
6. Supports two drive images at the same time (Note: backward compatible with previous firmware but requires firmware update in order to work with two drives)
## Roadmap
1. Proper ProDOS clock driver (currently just directly sets values on block reads)

## Setup if you received a complete board from me
1. Put in any slot (slot 7 preferred as it is the first to boot)
2. Turn on your Apple II
3. Wait for the RPi to start up (will show ... until it connects)
4. Select "2" from the menu to run a command
5. Type "a2wifi list" to check that you have a wireless network in range
6. Type "a2wifi select YOUR_SSID YOUR_PASSWORD" to connect the RPi to your network
7. Once connected, you should be able to ssh to the RPi from any computer if you want. From a Mac or Linux (or Windows with Bash) shell, type "ssh pi@raspberrypi". The default password is "raspberry".
8. Rebooting the Apple II, you can then select "1" from the menu and it will boot to ProDOS 2.4.2 and you will have a mostly blank 32 MB drive with a couple of utilities for updating firmware and such.
