This is my first attempt at a MiSTer core. Wish me luck :-)

Development setup

The original PET2001_MiSTer seemed to be compiled from Quartus 17, so I downloaded the lite version Quartus Lite 17-1

Compiling the project

Open the project file SuperPET.qpf file

Under the Menu, Processing, choose Start Compiling.

Patience is a virtue...

Installation on MiSTer:

Copy the .rbf file at the root of the SD card. Copy roms (.prg,*.tap) to SuperPET folder.

Notes:

• PRG apps are directly injected into RAM. Load command is not required.
• TAP files are loaded through virtual tape input. press F1 to issue LOAD command, and then choose TAP file in OSD.
• F12 opens OSD.

System ROM structure

• 0000-0FFF - unused, all zeros
