Using MiNT on the Atari side, it is of course possible to exchange data with a Linux box using the NFS protocol.
In our example, let's give the 192.168.1.3 IP address to the Atari, whereas the PC will use 192.168.1.4. Alas, I did not manage to use DHCP on the Atari side.
NFS server on the PC/Linux, NFS client on the Atari/MiNT
- On PC/Linux:
Add this in /etc/exports:
/home/strider/Documents/Atari 192.168.1.3(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,all_squash,anonuid=1000,anongid=1000)
Install the NFS server if not done yet (nfs-kernel-server) then start it:
sudo service nfs-kernel-server restart
- On Atari/MiNT:
mount_nfs -v -o rw,rsize=1024,wsize=1024,retrans=10 192.168.1.4:/home/strider/Documents/Atari /nfs/atari
NFS server on the Atari/MiNT, NFS client on the PC/Linux
- On Atari/MiNT:
Add this in /etc/exports:
/ram 192.168.1.4(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,all_squash,anonuid=1000,anongid=1000)
(Here, /ram is the path to MiNT's ramdisk)
- On PC/Linux:
Add this in /etc/fstab:
192.168.1.3:/ram /media/ram/ram nfs defaults,user,auto,noatime,intr 0 0
