Low Profile PiStorm (classic) Adapter board that connects a Raspberry Pi to the Amiga's 68000 socket or a socket adapter on the A2000
$45 plus shipping
I have five of these as of 02/11/2025.
  • Round machined 68k socket pins
  • High-quality Samsung CAPs
  • Brilliant Commodore Blue PCB
  • Pre-flashed (with longer hold flash) and tested working
  • Tested with ZZ9 PiStorm testing board and buptest
Additional features of a Raspberry Pi plugged into this board and installed in a 68000 socket
  • allows hard drive files/file sharing with the Pi's SD card
  • the Pi can act as a graphics card for the classic system
  • the Pi can provide CPU-addressed memory for a significant memory boost
  • the classic machine can use the Pi's network adapter for access to the internet or local LAN
  • the Pi can capture the keyboard and mouse for use on the classic system

What you will need (not included):

  • Raspberry Pi (best will be the 3 A or B)
  • A memory card for the Pi and the Amiga as storage
  • Firmware software, there are several available for download depending on taste and how much setup you want to do on the Amiga side
    • Emu68, Musashi/Linux, CaffineOS, AmiKit to name a few
  • Anything you want to plug into the Pi, such as an HDMI cable for Amiga Pi RTG and/or Pi setup.
  • Consideration for space inside the machine, for instance on the A2000 you can use a CPU slot to socket adapter board. On the A500 you may need to cover the metal shield with tape or something to ensure it doesn't touch the Pi
