C64 DTV
Aleitung MMC2IECMehr zu meiner eigenen Referenz und Bequemlichkeit hier die Anleitung zu
MMC2IEC. Die Projekt-Webseite findet ihr hier.
USAGE GUIDE:
------------
The MMC2IEC device implements accessing FAT16/32 filesystems on MMC or SD
flash media. The CBM IEC protocol is implemented and the kernel load and save
routines on the C64 works, loading from either PRG, D64 or T64 files, and
saving only to PRG type files in FAT.
Selecting directories and images is possible through LOAD"xxx" commands
issued on the CBM.
This is a quick overview of the commands, say MMC2IEC is IEC device 8:
LOAD"<<",8 Reset SD card state. Do this if the SD card is exchanged.
Read < as the petscii back-arrow.
If SDCARD_DETECT signals is available, this operation is
rarely needed.
In FAT mode: (the default mode)
LOAD"___FCKpd___0quot;,8 Gets directory listing, equivalent to LOAD".",8
LOAD"gamesdir",8 Enter the "gamesdir" directory, and get listing.
LOAD"..",8 Up one directory and get directory listing.
LOAD"tetris.prg",8 Loads the "tetris.prg" program file.
SAVE"example.prg",8 Save into "example.prg" which is a FAT file.
LOAD"disk.d64",8 Loads the disk.d64 image and enters D64 mode.
LOAD"tape.t64",8 Loads the tape.t64 image and enters T64 mode.
In D64 mode:
Load "___FCKpd___0quot;, "*", wildcards, filenames works (almost) as espected on a 1541.
LOAD"<",8 (back-arrow). Escape D64 mode, and back to FAT mode.
SAVE"abc",8 Fools the CBM, but has no effect. Saves in D64 are
not implemented
In T64 mode:
Load "___FCKpd___0quot;, "*", wildcards, filenames works as if it was a D64.
LOAD"<",8 (back-arrow). Escape T64 mode, and back to FAT mode.
SAVE"abc",8 Fools the CBM, but has no effect.

Blog
Happy new Year!
Yes, its 2010, the year where I hopefully spent more time on the projects, I am writing about here in my blog. No real progress with Lincade development, but its on my todo, to finalise the changes to the image and release one with SATA and updated Kernel.Recently I spend some time for my hobby, with modding my XBOX 360. Right now I am owning two XBOX 360. The first box (XENON model) I have bought here in Kuala Lumpur, came already with modified DVD drive. But the drive gave me some headache. Often the games stopped, due to reading errors. Later, the DVD tray refused to open after reading problems. After punching the 360, turning it off and on, I was able to remove the DVD. Sometimes it took me 15 minutes, to get the tray open. So I decided (the box was now already 2 years old), to open the box and update the firmwar and/or calibrate the laser. I found out, that the SATA plug was somewhat broken of the drive. The plastic brdige in the middle of the SATA plug, was lose. Maybe that causes the problem? Any tries with super glue failed. I calibrated the laser and it was better, but the problem returned. I was desperate and thought I should try a firmware upgrade. That Samsung ms-28 should be easy to update, but I struggled with even reading the flash. Probably because of the broken SATA plug. At one point, I must have bricked it. The drive was dead, the DVD key lost. It was not me who flashed it in the first place. So I had no copy of the original ROM. The dashboard Version was to new, the known King Kong exploit didn't work. I bought a RROD box with a working Hitachi. But with wrong DVD key, I was unable to play any game. That's why I decided in March 2009, to buy a new XBOX 360 (JASPER) with HDMI. But kept the old one, hoping one day I would be able to fix it.
Then, I think in December 2009, I read at hack-a-day, the 360 was hacked already 2 months
ago. There was the "JTAG Hack" descrided, as a way to flash XELL into the flash of the box and make it boot e.g. Linux. When XELL starts, it displays the CPU Key on the screen. With the CPU key I would be able to extract the DVD key from a dump of my 360 flash memory. The Jtack Hack gives you full read/write access to the nand flash. Certain tools help, to get what I want.So after sacrifying an old printer cable and soldering the wires into the old XENON, I was able to dump the nand and flash it with XELL. To get the DVD key was now a piece of cake. The next challenge was, to make the Hitachi work. I need to re-flash it with up-to-date firmware, change the DVD key and spoof a Samsung. Well, I never flashed a 360 drive before. A lot of things you need to know. Different drive versions and different procedures, depending on the state of the drive (flashed/unflashed). Here "Jungleflasher" was of big help. The tool itself is great, but even greater is the PDF document which works like an expert system, you can download there as well. In the PDF are links and it will guide you depending on many criterias through the right way, for your drive type/version, state and even helps you to solve Windows related issues if you can't access/flash the drive.
After flashing the drive, I had to get the 360 back into the state, where it starts with a dashboard, instead of XELL loader. At that time, XBREBOOT just became available. With XBREBOOT you can run unsigned code (homebrew) and its a patched dashboard. So I flashed it and what I've got is a 360, homebrew enabled with spoofed and working Hitachi drive. Its back to life! A sweet success after all that hassle and work on it!

I already feel sad, since the move to Malaysia, not much time was left for my blog and the Lincade project. For the blog I decided to post more related to retro and interesting computer stuff, like in the past. Last months in germany, it became more and more a Lincade Blog, which should be just a part of this site.Lincade got some progress with an updated Linux Kernel. Users asked for SATA support and better compatibility. The new kernel will do the job better. But it will involve a lot of testing too. Old kernel will remain in Lincade. Users will get the choice in the installation.
The web projects I am working on are planned to become kind second income. For this we founded a company called Lightspeed-Networks, which is based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Our slogan is "We create online worlds!" and we are doing exactly that. Our first project is called Carworld.my and is a website related to free car advertising. You can compare with the german website Mobile.de or Autoscount24.de. There are already sites here in Malaysia doing it, but we are the leading one, when it comes to features. Everything was written from scratch. I even built a small content management system, to publish news and articles. In the last 6 months I started to learn a lot about search engine optimisation, usability and Ajax. Running a website seems to mean, that you are never finished. And when its not a programming task, you have to make strategies or find ways to promote it. But its fun and it will be even more, when it starts to earn money!

Lincade [english]
Hiatus is over, Thanks for the patience
Sorry for the deveopment downtime everyone.
I have recently begun a major rework of the admin script which requires some additional programs on the backend of the system. This will necessitate a new ISO to be released.
The design phase is about 30% done at the moment.
Primary focus has been placed on the below listed points.
- The admin script should run in both the X window system and at the text console
- In theory this will allow the customization of the cabinet while using the arcade monitor (will need testers)
- The admin script should have a backup function to allow any or All of the following:
- Basic system configuration
- Machine name
- Network Configuration
- Emulators
- Configuration
- Application
- Data files
- Monitor
- Configuration
- Refresh Rates
- Xorg config
- Custom Modelines
- Configuration
- Menu Systems
- Configuration
- Application
- Data Files
- Basic system configuration
- The Current Config should be easily visible from the admin script
- There should be a restore to Defaults setting for each section of the system
- The Import Emulators Should (finally) allow for Internet installation of new Emulators
- A New Import Menu Systems will be created for the possible addition of different Menu programs
- The Import Roms Section will be revamped to try to improve the way Roms are handled
- This will include the ability of the Imported Emulator to include scripts to process and validate imported ROM files.
- All Configuration data will be stored in an easliy searchable datastore
- As of this writing, SQLite3 will be used to manage this.
Quite a bit going on I know. The eventual goal for me in doing this is to support SDLMame in it's most current version. While still allowing for the use of AdvMAME.
Thank you all for your patience.

Despite a lack of time, the development will be continued by me and John. We had an email conversation about a roadmap and the goals for the next version.One bigger issue to deal with, is that the development of advmame was stopped already a while ago. We might switch to SDLmame and try to use advmenu together with that. Next option is to use Wahcade! instead of advmenu. Lets see.
Besides everything emulation related, the kernel and support of more hardware is a topic which will be covered. Quick results can't be expected, but at least we are again working on it!

After beeing now for 2 months in KL, I am almost settled down. My office is usable, internet is working and my cab got a place in my living room. In other words, now I will continue working on this project. Luckily we have JIcemanL, who answered many many question in our forum and kept developing the admin and setup script. I am looking forward to have a new version of Lincade with some improvements very soon.
Before I moved, I bought the domain lincade.org. Now I have created a forwarding to our lincade forum, when visiting www.lincade.org. Nothing special, I just thought the project, which is basically just a part of pc2jamma.org, became so big that it deserves its own domain.

We arrived in KL und now already 10 days here. Just finished my first work week and on this weekend we will continue looking for a new home.
If everything runs fine, our furniture arrives on the 23. of december and I will be back at the project early in January.

We are here in the last preperations for the move to Malaysia. All contracts are cancelled, both cars and my motorcycle are sold. Got rid of a lot of stuff with the help of ebay. I even sold some parts of my Commodore collection.
The countdown is running now. Just a few days left until the 25th of November when we are leaving germany.
I hope to be back at the project around the end of december!
I created a german blog about our move: www.banko-kl.com. So if you are interested what we are doing, you will get an idea on that website.

This is a reason to party. We have today exactly 500 Lincade 0.040 downloads. When I started the project I wouldn't mind that so many people will using it. Good news for all users, there is a new release planned within the next weeks.
