October 2022 Release

How to update

• Option 1: Download the attached pre-configured Raspberry Pi OS Lite image, and flash it onto a SD card. (Reminder: Backup all of your data before doing this!)
• Option 2: On an existing RaSCSI installation, perform the following procedure:

cd ~/RASCSI
git pull
git checkout v22.10.01
./easyinstall.sh

Select option 1 in easyinstall.sh to rebuild and install

SD Card Info

• Default username:password is pi : raspberry
• Default host name is rascsi

What's Changed

• Support for SCSI-1 hard drives was added
• BREAKING CHANGE: Support for SASI hard drives, and sasidump, were removed
• Support for stock Apple CD-ROM drives (no longer need to use patched drivers on Macs)
• BREAKING CHANGE: The capacity part of the Product INQUIRY string for generic drives are now calculated in MiB / KiB instead of MB/ KB. If you rely on INQUIRY to detect an attached drive, you may need to update your scripts.
• Overhaul of the RaSCSI code: adding a large amount of unit tests; major refactoring and restructuring
• Overhaul of the Web Interface code: adding a JSON API and integration tests; streamlining and adding several features
• Code quality and security is being automatically analyzed on SonarCloud
