SCSI2Pi 6.3 is available.
The main changes in this version:
- With the in-process bus, busy-waiting no longer occurs while waiting for the SEL signal to be set, which significantly reduces processor load.
- The build process has been optimized. If you do not use the pre-built binary packages, but build a customized version, building is considerably faster than before.
- Following best practices, the build process does not touch the contents of the cpp folder anymore, but saves the object files, libraries and binaries to a separate folder hierarchy.
SCSI2Pi profits from running on a full-fledged Linux. Specially configured SD cards are not required, because images are simply copied to the Pi via the network. You control it with the SCSI Control App, a web interface or on the command line. Ataris are especially well supported with the SCSI2Pi Client Tools. SCSI2Pi is regularly used and tested with Atari computers.

Debian support for Bullseye will end on August 31, 2026. Upgrading to Trixie now is recommended.
