Subject: Re: [ECOS] redboot on dreamcast
Date: Fri, 17 Oct 2003 09:44:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200310170944.h9H9iN316945@neo1.neolabs.be> (raw)

Ok maybe I missed the ball here... the dreamcast probably does not
care if the redboot.BIN can do iso or not. I guess it _knows_ itself
how to read the iso fs from the cdrom to _load_ reboot from it...

Still why the error? 

An answer to the scramble question, or better a hint for a document
describing the procedure itself would still be welcome though (Comstedt
page is known, but does not comment on redboot)

Thanks

Jo
