RobSmithDev | MiSTer Minimig - Real Floppy Drive Update! @RobSmithDev | Uploaded August 2023 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
In this video I'm going to recap on where I got to last time, and the exciting stage I'm currently at! There's some great progress, and I'm now in beta testing for the minimig core. This also includes some important updates for copy protected games to work too.

Thanks go to Lukage on the MisterFPGA forum for some code that really got me started, some parts of which (PLL design) are still present in this.
