Problem: Running ImageBBS v1.2a+ in VICE using tcpser incurs two problems: REL file corruption and datastream corruption using tcpser. Hypothesis: 1) Mount an msdos formatted image file or files to one or more of the available four drives to VICE. Method to be described below. 2) Route emulated Swiftlink traffic to com port then have com port connected via TelBBS wire to a 2nd PC running BBS Server.
Method:
Run VICE v.3.2 on Ubuntu.
Create SD Card with partitions using gparted. Partitions formatted as FAT32, 33MB. Block size of 512
Using DD, capture the image of the SD Card:
dd if=/dev/sd<Letter> of=<raw image filename.img>
