Hi all, Now that I’ve nearly finished building my MintyPi, I’ve realised I need to be getting some ROMS on there very shortly. I don’t actually have any, although I do have cartridges, cassettes, CDs etc dating all the way back to the Atari 2600 & ZX Spectrum 48k. Where is the best place to get ROMS...

Still struggling with my 3D prints
The thin bit on the left hand side of the screen bezel prints ok for about 4 or 5 layers, but then starts to curl up, & when I push it back down, it never goes to the right exact spot.

All components and wires now installed in the base of the tin. IMG_8103.JPG Just waiting on the speakers from China to progress! One issue I am having is the Pi intermittently rebooting. I've attached the Pi to the button pcb, and installed the battery monitor with the two wires to the gpio holes. A...

Aha! Yes, I checked that it booted in the Pi as soon as I'd burned it.

In the end, I just re-burnt the MintyPi image as I had v2 and I noticed it'd had been upgraded to v3.

Worked a treat! Thanks Helder

Hi,
I've burnt the latest image of retropi (with the battery monitoring scripts) using ApplePiBaker, but I can't find the wpa_supplicant.conf file in the boot directory.

Can I just create a new text/conf file and put the 2 lines into it?

Actually what are the 2 lines? Lol

Cheers,

Strip some wire and stick it in the GPIO hole, it will push the solder down and make contact then trim the wire to be flush with the pi.

Aha! I'll give that a go, thanks

Soldering of Pi Zero to MintyPi Button PCB very nearly complete. IMG_8079.JPG The only one that's causing me problems is the Y pad. I've tried pushing the soldering iron in at least 20 times, and still no joy. Any ideas before I solder some wire between the pads? The only issue I had was with which ...

Yeh, yours look really great.
My fingers did ache like hell at the end!

I'm hoping to use the same button as the L & R ones. I didn't even think if it would catch the
Pi. Time will tell!

In creating all the holes in the tin, I decided to use a small off cut of wood pressed against the inside so the tin didn't deform. I then manually used 1.5mm, 2mm & 3mm drill bits, and a round file for the button switch holes and flat ones for the others. IMG_8068.JPG The results:- IMG_8069.JPG IMG...
