Re: My (attempted) PiSTorm STacy installation

Eventually when you get around to trying to shorten the height of the PiStorm stack, you can remove the plastic header and solder the Pi directory onto the PiStorm which might save about 1cm or so. As you can see from the STacy's pictures, it's a very close fit for everything in there, so thanks fo...

Re: My (attempted) PiSTorm STacy installation

1) I wouldn't test with CACHE=ON until you have it working without cache. I'm not even sure the cache is working at all at present. 2) make can't pick up on the command line changes so do a make clean first. It's a root-owned file. You'll need to edit it with sudo. sudo vi /boot/cmdline.txt BW The ...

Re: My (attempted) PiSTorm STacy installation

Can I safely assume that means there's nothing to be done, that
it's complete?

Thanks...

Re: My (attempted) PiSTorm STacy installation

It's the simplest of things sometimes... When I used "Pi Imager" to setup the 32gig SD card, I also configured things at that time, although it seems what it does is a bare minimum, skeletal version of what "raspi-config" does. I ran "ifconfig" after I initially set eve...

Re: My (attempted) PiSTorm STacy installation

As you can see from the pictures above, the PiSTorm, together with the Pi 4 and the necessary extender, is tall. It's really tall, and that's a serious problem for replacing the shields and the keyboard. I'll look at/work on that problem later. Currently, I got the PiSTorm in (I'm using the pre-made...

My (attempted) PiSTorm STacy installation

Okay, I like the thoughts of the PiSTorm accelerator for the ST line. I find it very interesting. It just so happens that I've got my STacy, equipped currently with a Pak 68/3 board, apart for some other long wished-for upgrades and mods. So I thought, why not? Let's play around with the PiSTorm and...
