Amiga-Emulation on ARM: HAPPIGA 1.3
Happiga is a Debian-based Linux distribution for ARM-based computers like the Raspberry Pi, which directly boots into the Amiga emulator UAE4ARM. An AGA-Amiga with a 68040 processor and sufficient RAM are emulated, Picasso96 is installed as well. There is also a preconfigured Samba share to enable the data exchange with other systems.
Changes in version 1.3:
- updated Raspbian, the firmware of the Rpi and UAE4ARM
- support for bsdsocket.library (internet)
- 128 MB Z3 RAM support
- added a Happiga menu (for optimization FT2/FT3, the choice of handle etc.)
- added a system update (to no longer have to redo its SD for each update), Fusion of the .happiga and happiga directories for this is easier
- some small fixes
