Other Versions and Ports

• AVR Firmware

  If you don't want to use the Arduino platform, then you can switch to native AVR support thanks to John Tsiombikas. You can find his port on GitHub also, at https://github.com/jtsiomb/usbamigafloppy.

• AVR Firmware/POSIX version

  Theres also a version by Gianluca Renzi which incudes AV and POSIX support. You can find his verion at https://github.com/gianlucarenzi/ArduinoFloppyDiskReader.

• Linux and MAC OS

  The Windows applications do apparently work under WINE, so that is your first option. There is also some Linux Scripts (requires X11-Basic) which might get you started, or alternativly you could modify the Python conversion that reads Commodore 1581 disks .
