BMC64 - I am a bit lost ...
Hello, I am a complete newbie to the world of Raspberry, and I am a little confused on how to perform certain actions to install BMC64. I have :
- a Raspberry 3B + sD card
- a Windows 10 PC
- necessary files (bmc64-3.6.files.zip, C64 ROMS)
My problem is here: I have to type the following commands, from what I read:
- sudo fdisk / dev / sdb (make SURE / dev / sdb is the SDCard!)
- Create your partition (s)
- sudo mkfs.vfat / dev / sdbx (make SURE / dev / sdbx is the right partition!)
Obviously these are not Dos / Windows commands, but I'm guessing, commands of the "linux" type. So I am missing something, in order to be able to send these commands to my SD card ...
Would any of you be kind enough to guide me?
Best regards,
Marc
Simply format your SD Card to FAT32 (not EXFAT32, FAT32) and copy the Contents of the .zip Archive to the SD Card This is no support Forum, so better ask Questions in Forums as Forum64 or in dedicated Facebook Groups
Thanks for your fast reply !
I have already tried to unzip the file directly after formatting the SD Card (but I don't know if I used FAT or FAT32) ... I will try again.
My question is, however, more general: for example I intend to install a Powerblock (power button):

Again, it will be necessary to run commands from the console to install the drivers. But how to access this famous console?
Best regards,
Marc
EDIT : Sorry, I missed the "this is not a support Forum" :) I'm going right now to the Forum64 forums !
No power block is necessary with BMC64. You can just power off. There is no console as this is a bare metal implementation. Closing.
