> Avra is a hopeless case. Unfortunately. I'm not so sure it's totally hopeless - just that it seems there few willing to dig into it to compile amforth with avra as there are simpler alternatives! <http://avra.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/avra/avra>
I have been using the Raspberry Pi (Debian) as an "IDE" for some 328P projects. Initially I would build Amforth on my desktop using Studio4 under wine (also under VM/XP) and move the hex files to the pi and load with avrdude. Since the pi is an ARM architecture, it won't run wine nor VM. But I wanted to be able to rebuild, load, and run amforth on the pi for a cleaner ( a bit faster) tool chain. I am using the Pi (and the hardware SPI) as my ISP programmer (see http://kevincuzner.com/2013/05/27/raspberry-pi-as-an-avr-programmer/ ) and the GPIO serial port to "chat" with my forth interpeter) Using avra from git hub (git clone git:// avra.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/avra/avra) and taking the configure.in and Makefile.am (Makefile.linux) from the avra-1.3.0 build package, I can build and install avra and assemble Amforth 5.0. I do get the .db warnings for tick.asm and brackettick.asm but otherwise the hex files load and boot and run fine for the 328P. "Unfortunately" I haven't been able to build "working" hex files from 5.1 (although I do get hex files) - but I may not have tracked down all my hacks from the 5.0 install that is working for me (I need to make better notes!) Note that I haven't successfully compiled 5.1 with Studio4 or avrasm2.exe and I can't seem to install Studio6 under wine or VM/XP. If my "working" avra under Debian for Amforth 5.0 is of interest to anyone, I'll track down the minor changes I've made and pass them along. Be forewarned: as with life, I have no idea how I got here or what I am doing, but occasionally it all seems to work.
