Well, the answer is in the video below:
There really isn't much more to say, except that I know I have a couple of sprite rendering bugs to sort out (on today's list, all going well).

MEGA65 Boots GEOS ... From a serially attached 1571

Is there some document how to connect/wire a serial IEC bus to a Nexys4DDR board with a "DIY style"? It'd be fun to try things like these out, I have some 1541 (no 1581 though) here (just collecting dust) around :)
ReplyDeleteThere are no instructions for this. It would require some 3.3V to 5V level converters and other components, and then assigning pins to one of the PMOD connectors. Not a huge amount of work, but not on my priority list at the moment, as I try to get the PCB working.
