Help understanding dreamshell - keilmillerjr - 29.06.2018 01:10
I am trying to get a good understanding of dreamshell. Perhaps some one can help me.
Connections
- SD mod consists of usb flash media being modified to connect to the serial port.
- CD is the GD-rom drive.
- IDE mod consists of piggy backing from the bottom of the gd-rom connector solder points?
- PC I have no idea what this is?
Settings
- What is DMA?
- What is async read?
- Why wouldnt all CDDA audio be emulated automatically if present on disc image?
- Is Katana sega's operating system? Does detecting it automatically not work all the time?
- What is "loader device?"
- What do all the boot mode options mean?
- What is loader memory?
It is a lot of questions. However, it will help me understand dreamshell, compatibility, and how the dreamcast works in general. I have web programming experience and could possibly do something to contribute to the scene. Thank you.
