Lakka > Atari st : can not load TOS file J'/usr/bin/tos

crabtronic · 15 January 2017 04:04

Hello retrogamers,

I enjoy very much the lakka project. Easy to setup ! Just a usbkey needed ! Awesome. I setup a usb key ultrafast from Sandisk and plug it on a pc to use it as live key. I’ve already managed atari 2600 / NeoGeo / Super Nintendo / Nitendo 64 and all work fine.

But for Atari St I can’t !

First when I try to “Load content” I get “Can not load TOS file J’/usr/bin/TOS” in a grey square on black screen. I have put the TOS 1.62 image in the follow directorys : - \LAKKA\Cores os.img

the directory of the ROM : \LAKKA\ROMs\AtariSt os.img
\LAKKA\System os.img And when I go to “load core” it works ! In “information” menu I see that tos file is “present” ! But when I try to "load content" > "select file and detect core" I get the frustrating : “can not load TOS file J’/usr/bin/tos”

The roms inside the AtariSt directory are zipped. Just in case you should know ;-> Second when I try to klick on the “plus” button to scan the directory “atarist” all freeze and I must reboot the computer.

What did I miss ? Thanks to help

The bios should be only in system directory. Please remove the one in cores and rom directories.

The core supports st, msa and zip files.

Thanks to answer me !

I did it and I get the same grey square with “can not load TOS file J’/usr/bin/tos” :-/

In the core information, when I load the atari ST core I get:

status : present, Required

crabtronic · 15 January 2017 08:41

Perhaps is it my tos.img version which is bad? Which version is fully working?

gouchi · 15 January 2017 08:41

This md5sum should be ok

 c1c57ce48e8ee4135885cee9e63a68a2  tos.img

crabtronic · 15 January 2017 08:42

Here it is ! I’m all wrong. Where can I find the good version ? May I have a little hint please ?

gouchi · 15 January 2017 08:42

According to the documentation,

“The plain ST mode only works with TOS 1.00, 1.02, 1.04, or 2.06. STE mode requires any of the TOS versions 1.xx or 2.xx. TOS 3.0x is for TT, and TOS 4.0x is for Falcon mode.”

Yes, of course I’ve read the doc. And I’ve try all the versions mentionned but nothing work. Like this one for exemple: https://sourceforge.net/projects/emutos/?source=typ_redirect

And the one from this website : http://www.atariworld.org/tos-rom/

I take the french version. Perhaps is-it the problem?!

And no one of these tos.img have this c1c57ce48e8ee4135885cee9e63a68a2 checksum.

crabtronic · 15 January 2017 08:43

Do you think I have to set up a config file inside the roms as developped in this post ?

Can you try to provide lakka system logs ?

Thank you.

I am sorry, I have made a mistake : I tried with atari2006 not atari st files.

So I could reproduce your error. I think we have to make configuration file in /storage/system/hatari.cfg. I will have to make some tests and report.

crabtronic · 15 January 2017 08:44

ok great ! Impatient to read about you !

gouchi · 15 January 2017 08:47

I could launch the hatari core if I used the configuration file. You need to set for sure at least :

[Floppy]
bAutoInsertDiskB = TRUE
FastFloppy = TRUE
nWriteProtection = 0
szDiskAFileName = [B]/storage/roms/atarist/game.st[/B]
szDiskBFileName =
szDiskImageDirectory = [B]/storage/roms/atarist[/B]
szDiskAZipPath =
szDiskBZipPath =

[ROM]
szCartridgeImageFileName =
szTosImageFileName = [B]/storage/system/tos.img

[/B]

Unfortunately, my mouse didn’t move so I can’t click to the first floppy disk to launch the game.

SELECT Toggle mouse/joy mode. F12 for the configuration menu.

crabtronic · 15 January 2017 08:48

Awesome ! It’s working like a charm! Thanks a lot !

gouchi · 15 January 2017 08:48

You are welcome, glad it is working !

crabtronic · 15 January 2017 08:48

two more questions: 1 - how to map the keyboard ? 2 - how to generate the playslite ? I have try with ST, STX, and zip ! Nothing is catched !

gouchi · 15 January 2017 08:48

1 - I am not sure if it is possible right now ? But you can check default control. 2 - It seems the playlist required IPF files but you will need to compile the core with this option.

Otherwise, you have to create your playlist by hand for st, stx, zip file. But I think you should change to empty

 szDiskAFileName =

So that it will take the disk from the playlist arguments.

crabtronic · 15 January 2017 08:48

Ahah I am in unknow land ! Great! I’ll try this.

killer101 · 26 March 2017 10:56

Any chance to get the link right? I’d like to setup hatari and have to take a look into the config file. For some reason the link is not working!
