      Hi guys,

      I've decided to install Amibian on a separate SD card rather than running UAE4ALL through ES as I want to configure it (eventually) with WHD and have it as a standalone system.

      In the meantime, I'd like to know if there is a way to program the Controlblock into Amibian as I'd like to retain it's functionality. Is it the same as installing with Retropie? Or am I way off the mark?

      I'm running an RPi 3B for reference.

      Cheers,
      Dan

        I have not tried to install the ControlBlock driver so far. But you can try to follow just the same instructions as given at https://github.com/petrockblog/ControlBlockService2#controlblockservice2 and post the outcome here.

          Thanks for the response, but I've actually put the wrong info down. The title is correct, I'm looking to use the PowerBlock, NOT the ControlBlock with Amibian. Sorry for the confusion!

            The answer is very similar :-) Try to follow the steps given at https://github.com/petrockblog/PowerBlock#powerblock-driver. It would be great, if you would post the outcome here.
