I disabled ttyAMA0 as instructed
I have SimpleIDE installed and running.
I replaced propeller-load
I have robopi.cfg in ~/SimpleIDE-....

I compiled hello.c successfully and it seems to load correctly with a Verifying ram OK and build successful
when I run either from RAM, EEPROM or with terminal I get NADA - nuttin - zilch
It must be me cause other folk seem to work BUT what???

    - you need to run minicom, putty or other serial program on the Pi to talk to RoboPi
    - you need to make sure SimpleIDE uses a board config with 100MHz crystal

    as it loaded correctly & verified, it has to be the above.

    Hope that helps,

    Bill

    It is now working.
    robopi.cfg needs to be in /opt/parallax/propeller-load
    you need to modify boards.txt in that same directory to include robopi.cfg
    and lastly you need to run minicom or similar the terminal associated with SimpleIDE does not work

    Hi Ray,

    Glad to hear it is working!

    Too bad about the SimpleIDE serial terminal not working.
