Pi2 + ADFFS
Posted: Sun Mar 27, 2016 11:28 pm
Hello all,
So I'm writing this from RISC OS running very nicely on a Pi, a pleasant experience all told.
What combination of factors do I need to run games, though, I wonder? -- The Pi in question is a Version 2 Model B+. I downloaded the Pi-ready RISC OS SD image, which tells me it's version 5.21, dated 17 Feb 2015. I can see that there are newer versions available which make substantial changes to the way memory is addressed (changes I imagine to be driven in part or whole by ADFFS development) but it's not clear to me how I would create an SD disc image to run these newer builds (nor that it's necessary for me to do so!)
As for ADFFS itself, I've tried version 2.50b without success, but that doesn't surprise me too much given what I'm reading in this subforum about Pi2 development being ongoing.
So the questions that arise are these:
Are there more recent dev builds available, would they help, and from where could I obtain them?
Would I be best advised to stick with RISC OS 5.21, or try something newer (and if so, how?)
Cheers,
morb.
