## A2SERVER
A2SERVER lets you use a [Raspberry Pi][1], or almost any other computer, to serve files to Apple IIgs and enhanced IIe computers on your network. You\'ll also be able to boot into GS/OS or ProDOS 8 directly from tne network (no drives needed). A2SERVER has been designed to be as easy to set up and use as possible, and it\'s free.
<!--A2SERVER is available as a Raspberry Pi installer, or a virtual machine which runs on Mac OS X, Windows, Linux, or Solaris computers, or as an easy-to-use installer for Ubuntu or Debian Linux.
-->
Fix relative links .html -> .md There's little reason to render these files as HTML again, and if they're ever placed on a website, it'd probably be best to do so using a quick bit of PHP that does the translation on the fly. I'd suggest an absolutely trivial stylesheet for each page (more or less akin to the pre-HTML4 tags that were already present) and perhaps a tiny bit of script magic that regenerates those tags based on that CSS. Not a priority at present.

A2SERVER is based on open-source software, primarily [Netatalk][2] 2.2.4, with [many utilities and enhancements](a2server_features.md) to make everything as easy as possible. (If you like A2SERVER, you might also want to check out [A2CLOUD][3].)

<!--If you haven't checked out A2SERVER in a while: it now runs on something small, cheap, and silent, and every common LocalTalk-to-Ethernet bridge now works easily with a IIgs (as opposed to none previously). And A2SERVER supports Wi-Fi, and can download and install GS/OS on your network drive for you. Cool stuff!
-->
_Update 19-Mar-15: A2SERVER 1.2.2 is available. It has support for Raspberry Pi 2 Model B and every other Raspberry Pi, and new command line options for the installer script. To update, type `a2server-setup`._
Choose how you\'d like to use A2SERVER, and you\'ll be up and running shortly.
