IMPORTANT

  • Only give minimal information here, essentially a descriptive oneliner and tech details so we know who needs to learn/make/research what
  • Use git if necessary to keep track of your own small project files (ie, source code)
  • Use Syncthing to share large files/binaries/docs/whatnot
  • Use and link to your personal wiki pages (log) for documenting the research and prototyping process

RPi3 setup

Base System

Follow the guide The Ultimate RPi Installation Guide!

You need at least to have a base system and hotspot working for now, more specific details soon.

Floppy disk system

Testing if everything works fine

  • plug floppy disk drive
  • check it is recognised by the system, checking for instance with dmesg, example output:
[ 1505.185614] usb 1-1.5: USB disconnect, device number 5
[ 1513.164425] usb 1-1.5: new full-speed USB device number 6 using dwc_otg
[ 1513.467105] usb 1-1.5: New USB device found, idVendor=0644, idProduct=0000
[ 1513.470194] usb 1-1.5: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
[ 1513.473283] usb 1-1.5: Product: TEAC FD-05PUB   
[ 1513.476430] usb 1-1.5: Manufacturer: TEAC    
[ 1513.486391] usb-storage 1-1.5:1.0: USB Mass Storage device detected
[ 1513.489864] scsi host0: usb-storage 1-1.5:1.0
[ 1514.501431] scsi 0:0:0:0: Direct-Access     TEAC     FD-05PUB         1026 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 CCS
[ 1514.506805] sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 0
[ 1514.885427] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI removable disk
  • Insert floppy, and check that a block device is created (still checking with dmesg):
[ 1592.965421] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] 2880 512-byte logical blocks: (1.47 MB/1.41 MiB)
[ 1593.989421]  sda:
  • make a temporary directory to mount the floppy to
cd
mkdir floppy
mount /dev/sda floppy
  • check that you see the content of the floppy in the floppy directory:
ls floppy

Format floppies if needed

  • Insert floppy
  • Check which block device it is using (/dev/sda in this example) with dmes
  • Force format the whole block as vfat giving it a label,
mkfs.vfat /dev/sda -I -n "SECRETFLOPPY"

Useful Commands

speaker-test -D hw:0,0 -f cd
