@ -6,7 +6,7 @@ Apple II client/server for Raspberry Pi
Apple II Pi works by connecting an Apple II to a Raspberry Pi using a RS232 serial connection. 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.DSK disk image onto a 5 1/4 floppy. ADTPro would be the recommended tool for that operation.

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 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:<br> Installing and configuring the Raspberry Pi: Download the apple2pi project to your Raspberry Pi.
