Started my PiDP8 project from the simH end, built up a Pi Zero and got it self-booting into simH 4.0 using directions found on the PiDP8 web site and the Google Group. What's nice about the Pi Zero is that one can get enough power right off the display to power USB keyboard and wireless dongles, to make it easier to download whatever files I want. I added a 2.54 mm 40-pin connector to attach to the soon-to-be-completed PiDP box. http://vintagecomputer.net/pictures/2016/PiDP8/ I started with the original Raspberry Pi, but quickly learned you can't use this model, it does not have a 40 pin connector. The RPi Zero does not come with a connector installed, you have to add it yourself but the advantage is that it is smaller and uses less power. I believe I will be able to run power and serial connection through the one port too. Bill
I follow in your footsteps. My plan was get the computer working first, so I know for sure what holes I need to make in the box, before I get started on it. I used Debian Jessie, which is the latest version of Debian and then installed the special simH Oscar made on top of that. It boots into simH but you can also get into the GUI mode, has WiFi networking.

Mine should ship in a few days (12/29) but I already have a Pi Zero with a WiFi dongle.I first setup the Pi as a USB Gadget so I can ssh from my Linux server via the USB. I'll upload everything in the next few weeks. Right now I'm working to restore the Atari 600XL. I think I can pop into the video circuit and run a wire to the composite of the Commodore 1802 monitor and have enough to debug with. -- Linux Home Automation Neil Cherry ncherry@linuxha.com http://www.linuxha.com/ Main site http://linuxha.blogspot.com/ My HA Blog Author of: Linux Smart Homes For Dummies

PiDP8 update - apparently blew out my N2981A chip, over heats and the front panel does not respond correctly. Ordered replacement. I *think* it's because the vertical wood block was too close to the chip.

It's not working like I had hoped, but I think it's the connector adapter I am using. I don't get clean operation when the cable is attached, too much electric noise I am guessing. I need to order a short cable with a clean connector without a bare adapter. [---------------] Light Panel |||||||||||||||||| <---bare adapter / problem here?)

Well that's a clever idea, I didn't think of stringing the whole I/O cable out the back. That's the most flexible thing to do especially if you plan to make the box fairly sealed. With my Zero, I still have to go in there to get the SD card. Bravo.

Oh, another word of warning. There's a difference between a Pi 3 (64 bit ARM) and the rest of the Pi (32 bit). Software compiled for the 3 won't work on the other Pi's (but the same source can be compiled on the host machine and will work).
