When HstWB Installer image is installed the Amiga emulator can be started to build the image.

Start building HstWB Installer image

Start building HstWB Installer image with following steps:

  1. Type hstwb and press enter to start HstWB Installer.

    Run HstWB

  2. Select Setup and press enter.

    HstWB main menu

  3. Select HstWB Installer and press enter.

  5. Select configurations in Amiga emulator.

    • Amiberry

    Amiberry start

    • UAE4ARM

    UAE4ARM start

  6. Double-click hstwb-build-030-jit configuration to start building HstWB Installer image.

    • Amiberry

    Amiberry configurations

    • UAE4ARM

    UAE4ARM configurations

The Amiga emulator will with now build of HstWB Installer image detecting Amiga OS, Kickstart roms, packages and user packages and start installation.

This can take some time depending on speed of Raspberry Pi model, Amiga emulator and how many packages and user packages to install.

Configure autostart of Amiga emulator configuration

After build of HstWB Installer image is complete, configure autostart of HstWB Installer image with following steps:

  1. Type hstwb and press enter to start HstWB Installer.

    Run HstWB

  2. Select Run Amiga emulator to run default Amiga emulator.

    HstWB main menu

  3. Select configurations in Amiga emulator.

    • Amiberry

    Amiberry start

    • UAE4ARM

    UAE4ARM start

  4. Click hstwb-run-030-jit configuration and click Load.

    • Amiberry

    Amiberry configurations

    • UAE4ARM

    UAE4ARM configurations

  5. Enter autostart in name and click Save.

    • Amiberry

    Amiberry autostart

    • UAE4ARM

    UAE4ARM autostart

  6. Click Quit to exit Amiga emulator.

Run Amiga emulator will now automatically start autostart configuration.

Configure run Amiga emulator at boot

Configure Amiga emulator to run at boot with following steps:

  1. Type hstwb and press enter to start HstWB Installer.

    Run HstWB

  2. Select Setup and press enter.

    HstWB main menu

  3. Select Raspberry Pi OS and press enter.

    HstWB setup menu

  4. Select Change boot and press enter.

    HstWB setup Raspberry Pi OS

  5. Select Emulator and press enter.

    HstWB setup Raspberry Pi OS

Raspberry Pi will now start Amiga emulator at boot.

This is very useful together with autologin and autostart of Amiga emulator configuration making the Raspberry Pi start Amiga emulator and configuration when powered on.
