Note: while time passes. I choose to use the minimal implementations of Dl'd OSes because in the dressed ones, there are always the chance of getting something you don't want or need to build the specific implementation. And there is more to update as time passes. The unknown still exists in the minimal images, but the chance is less. That and if something goes wrong, the chance for you to blame yourself is greater in a minimalist implementation. It is all a matter of control and self-deprecation that drives my choices. Oh, while the burn is finishing, I need to hook up the RPi to power, monitor, keyboard and mouse.  Back in a flash -- see what I did there.
 
*First burning of the image failed so I'm going to try with [https://github.com/manjaro-arm/rpi4-images/releases/download/23.02/Manjaro-ARM-xfce-rpi4-23.02.img.xz Manjaro-ARM-xfce-rpi4-23.02.img.xz]

sudo dd if=Manjaro-ARM-xfce-rpi4-23.02.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 status=progress
  • Put the microSD in the RPi4B and boot - first run takes a while go get coffee.
  • Enter your desired Locale settings and click on "Next"
  • Set your timezone and click on "Next"
  • Set your desired Keyboard settings and click on "Next"
  • Set your desired login credentials and click on "Next"
  • Last Chance to back out - click on "Next"
  • Reboot, Login and open a terminal.
  • In terminal, enter:
sudo pacman-mirrors --country United_States
sudo pacman -Syu

The system will now do a complete upgrade. This will take some time.

  • Reboot system again
  • Open terminal and type
sudo pacman -S --needed yay
  • Note: yay is a nice little package management tool that will not only draw from the standard repositories, but the aur.archlinux.org repositories also. It's usefulness on an ARM system is questionable, but we'll see if it is really needed or not.
  • Also, if you ssh into the system, you can copy/paste most of what I'm writing here.
pacman -S --needed gtk3 base-devel git svn xa dos2unix glew
cd 
mkdir -p sandbox/svn
cd sandbox/svn
svn checkout https://svn.code.sf.net/p/vice-emu/code/trunk vice-emu-code
cd vice-emu-code/vice
./autogen.sh
mkdir ../gtk3ui-vice
cd ../gtk3ui-vice
../vice/configure -C --enable-gtk3ui --disable-pdf-docs
make -j $(nproc --all)
sudo make install
  • VICE is now compiled. To get network connectivity, we will need Jim Brain's 1.15a of tcpser available on git.
cd
mkdir -p sandbox/git
cd sandbox/git
git clone https://github.com/go4retro/tcpser
cd tcpser
make clean
make
sudo cp tcpser /usr/local/bin
  • done
