In order to get the Raspberry Pi to talk RS232 from it's 3.3V GPIO serial port, you will need to build or buy a converter. They are very cheap on eBay, so I would recommend going that route. To ensure you've hooked the converter up correctly, try loggin into the Raspberry Pi from another modern-ish computer. Raspbian, the default Debian based Linux for the Raspberry Pi, opens up a login (getty) session on the serial port at 115.2K baud. You will probably need a null modem or cross-over cable to login from another computer. Once it all checks out, time to connect your Apple II. All the 3.3V converters I see have a DB-9 connector and many of the Apple II era connectors are DB-25 so you may need a DB-9 to DB-25 converter. -Installing and configuring the Apple II: You will need an Apple //c or Apple //e w/ SuperSerial Card. An Apple II Mouse is recommended for that full-on retro feel, but not required. Download and install the A2PI.PO disk image onto a 5 1/4 floppy. ADTPro would be the recommended tool for that operation. +Installing and configuring the Apple II: You will need an Apple //c or Apple //e w/ SuperSerial Card.

ADTPro would be the recommended tool for that operation although once you have the latest apple2pi version running, you can use the included dskwrite and dskread utilities for writing and reading ProDOS floppies. Installing and configuring the Raspberry Pi: Download the apple2pi project to your Raspberry Pi. Enter the apple2pi/src directory. Compile the daemon and tools with 'make' and copy the results to /usr/local/bin with 'sudo make install'. You will need to disable the Raspbain serial login by editing /etc/inittab and commenting out the line (probably at the very bottom) to look like:
