System Organization

• • The system uses 4 or 5 hard drives:

    • C is the System boot disk.

    • D contains Easymint ext2 system with the Unix tools.

    • H is the host disk, linked to /home folder, and contains all your apps, data and system files. On Beekey it is limited to 2GB. On BeePi you can use the full capacity of the card.

    • I  (for Beekey only), is a host directory at the root of the USB key named "Beekey". You can use the full capacity of the USB key.

    • M contains the mounted USB drive.

    • All host, Aranym and Hatari config files are hidden in '/h/.system' together with the disk image for C and D and TOS images.

• • Host system can be accessed in different ways :

• From EasyAraMint - Direct access:
  Right click on the Desktop, choose '/Tools/Quit to host'. Aranym will quit and you will reach the linux bash login. Type "exit" to restart the emulation.

• From EasyAraMint - SSH access:
  Right click on the Desktop, choose 'Start Shell' and enter :

ssh root@beekey or  respectively ssh pi@beepi

• From another computer - SSH access:

Start the shell and enter :

ssh root@beekey .local for BeeKey or ssh pi@beepi .local for BeePi

If your computer can´t log in BeeKey or BeePi server, use the ip address instead (ex : ssh pi@192.168.1.31). The host ip address can be found in the folder  home/Documents

• The emulation is started by  :

  • bash.bashrc for Beekey and  rc.local  for BeePi which will setup the internet bridge and launch DELAY.SH and STARTEMU. 

  • DELAY.SH starts the printing system and mounts the smb shared drive the case being. 

  • STARTEMU starts the emulation launcher.

STARTEMU action is managed via flags stored in H:/.system/flags. These flags are : jit, std, hatari, hatari_temp, linux, reboot, shutdown and are generated respectively by speed_sw.prg, sys_sw.prg, hatastar.prg, sw2host.prg  and Shutdown.app.

• • AUTOPRINT.SH will automatically convert the raw pcl printing file into pdf and send it to a network printer the case being.

  • AUTOSTART launches X11 and the emulation choosen.

  •  BASHRC is the default setup file for host bash and manage the hardware setup.

  • BOOTED flag sets that the system has allready been booted.

  • CPU-INFO is a tool to monitor cpu frequency and temperature for overclocking.

  • PCL6 converts pcl printing file into pdf.

  • All the START_*.SH manage X11 emulator start.

  • PARTITIONS directory contains the system disk images.

  • TOS directory contains the TOS and EMUTOS images.
