PiStorm32-Lite RTG setup

I have an A1200, revision 1D4 with a PiStorm32-Lite, rPi3A+. After much fuss, I finally have AmigaOS 3.2 setup to my liking, but I'd like to get the RTG graphics working.

Everything I see related to the A1200-specific PiStorm seems to suggest that you must run CaffeineOS to use RTG. However, I have seen documentation that suggests it can be configured with P96, given a PiStorm "disk" with specific drivers. I don't know where to find this disk and the wiki provided by AmigaKit only seems to detail basic setup of the MicroSD card and emu68 software.

I went to the Discord channel and I was pointed toward this repository, but I'm not seeing anything specific to the RTG functionality and the file descriptions are vague.

Has anyone managed to setup RTG without CaffeineOS? If so, do you know where to grab the PiStorm drivers for AmigaOS?

If you want to save time configuring P96 screen modes grab these files from a Caffeine install.
1. emu68-vc4 & emu68-vc4.info from DEVS:Monitors (Emu68 RTG Monitor file)
2. emu68-vc4.card from Libs:Picasso96 (Emu68 RTG Video card file)
3. Picasso96Settings from Devs: (Emu68 Picasso96 Settings & Screen modes)

Used this method to get RTG running in OS3.2 on my A1000 after a reboot go into Prefs>Screenmode, select an RTG Screenmode and test before selecting ok.

Hope that helps.

You could also use ThoR's P96Prefs and use its menu option to add all the standard modes.

Just wanted to check in and report that RTG is working perfectly with AmigaOS 3.2.2.1. Thank you all for taking the time to comment or make suggestions, I really appreciate your assistance and expertise.

I've left and come back to the Amiga scene many times and so my skills are a little rusty. I appreciate your patience with me.
