Hello Everybody,
I'm learning how to make a bootable dreamcast disc.
On the 'Second Step' of the 'Dreamcast Homebrew' website Guide they talk 'bout
PLAIN FILES and SCRAMBLED 1st_read.bin. Where can I get them? Are they different for each game?
Thanx!

Plain files = all game files in dir or archive
1st_read.bin = main exe of game

To selfboot any game use the latest ver. of BootDreams. Its very easy to make with it sb game from directory with game files.

Hello again,
i tried to work with both Selfboot and BootDreams, but I have the same problem when the Image is created.
If I try to run the image on Chankast, it gives me this error : "ioControl ERROR".
Can anybody explain me why?
Thank You!
