When using the PiStorm32-lite for the Amiga 1200, we need to simply plug in a Raspberry Pi 3 into the board.

The Pi connects in on the underside not the top.

After this connect it up to the Amiga Trapdoor.

The next step is to prepare an SD card that will boot using Emu68, the 68k hardware emulator.

Insert a blank SD into your PC, open an admin command prompt and run the following commands on lines where there is a > from an admin command line. The lines not starting with > are outputs to show you what to expect.

Note I use a 4GB SD card here, and it shows as disk 3.

At this point click Cancel to any popups from Windows asking you to format the drives. Do not do this.

This creates a partition 200MB in size, which is where the Emu68 files go that the Pi reads from.

This will create a partition used for Workbench that fills the rest of the card with one large partition.

Note these partitions are type 76 (used by the Pi / Amiga to read from correctly).

Confirm the partitions look like this:



Currently partition 2 is select, we want to format the first partition as FAT32 so we can copy the Emu68 files over in Windows.

We will select partition 1 and assign it a drive letter, which automatically formats it for us as FAT32.



Windows should now popup a window asking you to format. Click Format, select FAT32 and continue.

Now the 200MB partition should pop up as a drive on WIndows.

Close out the DiskPart window, we are done with it now.

Download the latest zip from the Emu68 GitHub page.

If you are using a 32-bit Amiga 1200 download the pistorm32lite, otherwise download the pistorm.

Finally, copy your desired Kickstart ROM over to the SD card and rename it to kick.rom.

Here I copy the Kickstart 1200 ROM A1200.47.111.rom (not .bin) from the Amiga OS 3.2.2 CD files AmigaOS3.2CD\Update3.2.2\ROMs and renamed it to kick.rom.

That's it. Put the SD card into the Pi and it should boot right up into the default kickstart.
