So far, this is a project and not a finished product. The current prototype is on the fifth revision and a few have been assembled and tested. It is now possible for the Apple II to boot from and write to a virutal hard drive image stored on the RPi in any slot and execute simple commands on the RPi via the Apple II. The code has very few tests and is incomplete. Note that currently the firmware assumes an 80 column card is in slot 3 and than you have lowercase support. If you have a problem or idea for enhancement, log an issue [here](https://github.com/tjboldt/Apple2-IO-RPi/issues). I recommend starring/watching the project for updates on GitHub. You are welcome to fork the project and submit pull requests which I will review.
## Features
1. Boot menu which waits for RPi to be ready
1. Boot message which waits for RPi to be ready
2. ProDOS bootable drive from image stored on RPi
3. Execute Linux commands on the RPi from the Apple II (has partial VT100 emulation but is buggy and missing the cursor in apps like vim)
3. Execute Linux bash shell 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)

## Setup starting from scratch
1. Have PCBs made from the gerber and drill files in the Hardware folder or email me for a blank or fully assembled board
