Re: X68000 beta - stopped working all of a sudden
I’d be keen to help get fdd working off the main sd card if you want, @puu @grabulosaur?

Re: X68000 beta - stopped working all of a sudden
Although the operation has not been confirmed at all yet, the RTL of expanding the D88 file into the FDD track image is almost finished. The circuit for writing back from the track image to D88 is also quite complicated.

Re: X68000 beta - stopped working all of a sudden
For people with no IO board here's how to make Grabulosaure's old version work
I used the mod'ed version her: https://temlib.org/pub/mister/release-F68kMiSTer.rbf - thanks a LOT, Grabulosaure
• Place boot.rom into /Games/X68000/ or name it X68000.rom and place it in /bootrom/ (and perhaps SRAM.DAT in /Games/X68000/ - but I'm not sure if it's needed)
• Place e.g. TETRIS.HDF into /Games/X68000/
• In OSD: Start the mod'ed core (X68000 20.05.10)
• In OSD: Set 'Hard Disk' to MiSTer
• In OSD: Go right (arrow key) and select 'Save settings'
• In OSD: Select 'HDS *.HDF' and select the HDF-game you want
• In core: Tap F11 - if cursor gets stuck open the OSD (F12) and select 'Reset')
• In core: Set all FDDs to EJECT (to load from HDF)
• In core: Tap F11
• In OSD: Select 'Reset' - close the OSD
• Wait 3-4 seconds (reboot)

@grabulosaur
In the user_io file, there is a sd handling loop. This loop is used to stream data across. For snes msu1, I hijacked the loop, making it call a separate function in support/snes... this allowed me to do specific sector sizes - either smaller or larger than 512 bytes.
Do you have your source code available for the main sd card HD stuff?

Re: X68000 beta - stopped working all of a sudden
Don’t see why not... be good to sort out 15khz video output... 24khz down to 15khz would also be nice somehow?
Re: X68000 beta - stopped working all of a sudden
Wouldnt that fall under MiSTer framework? That is, scaling? I think even ao486 cannot run 31khz things on a 15khz natively - people use downscalers like Corio for that. Def would be pretty nice to have that option on the framework.

The disk emulation code is a bit special, based on microcode, I adapted a SCSI disk emulation which handled more commands.
If I understand correctly, it should be possible to handle both ASCI and SCSI commands (with 512B sectors) to support larger disks. And, then CDROM with yet another sector size.
I need to finish another thing now, before I could help on X68K

It is not sold outside of Japan and is a hobby-only machine, so I don't think there is one. You will have no choice but to rewrite the message part with a binary editor.

Re: X68000 beta - stopped working all of a sudden
I uploaded a version that does not use a 2nd SD card.

Re: X68000 beta - stopped working all of a sudden
Thank you Puu for this update. It is very usefull.
The package have some missing files (ktbln.hex, tbl6258.mif, ...)
I managed to compile the RBF getting those files from the previous package but the sound is not ok maybe an issue on my compilation.

Re: X68000 beta - stopped working all of a sudden
At this time, I didn't change code around sound.
I'll soon upload a version that compensates for the missing files.
(The only change is that)

Re: X68000 beta - stopped working all of a sudden
by recovering the missing files, I have sound
But I cannot use my files from my main SD. I must be wrong somewhere !
There is also no more support for the mouse?
my compiled file:

Re: X68000 beta - stopped working all of a sudden
Where is the SRAM file supposed to go if we are not using the 2nd SD card?

You have to stote SRAM image in MiSTer SD card "X68000" directory.

Re: X68000 beta - stopped working all of a sudden
Maybe you need to rename your SRAM.DAT to SRAM.RAM to be opened by X68000 on the main SDCard if your file is name SRAM.DAT previously.
Re: X68000 beta - stopped working all of a sudden
I've compiled the latest version, but with this one, when I select an HDF then reset, I'm stuck at "X68000 terminal V1.0" prompt.
Any idea ?

I have the same problem as you, I only tested with d88 files

Re: X68000 beta - stopped working all of a sudden
Have you set the SRAM before loading the D88 and SASI files? SRAM does not need to be loaded because it has an initial value. I think that you can't load the disk image if some error occurs in loading SRAM and it stops midway. Immediately after starting the X68000, load the disk image and reset. Perhaps it is better to select SAVE CONFIGURATION after unmounting with [BS] in SRAM file selection.
