So I’m about 75% through the build after deliberating way too much (and on more than one occasion) whether to use the included Raspberry Pi 5 heat sink and fan, or the one I already had installed on the Pi.
You can see it in the accompanying image.
I’m producing a video to detail this stage, which I’ll add as soon as I’m done. Then, I’ll be installing the bare metal emulator, which I’ll also include with some screen recordings to show you how simple it is.
After that, it’s a case of booting up and playing with an MS-DOS PC! I’ll be producing full steps for that final stage, complete with a simple guide for you to work through. You can literally have a Raspberry Pi — almost any model — booting into a DOS environment within 10 minutes, it’s that easy.
