Re: Coffin r57 running on MiSTer
Just an FYI I am using a 3.1.4 rom not the AROS rom that came with the Coffin OS downloads. If you use a 3.1 rom it will not boot.

Re: Coffin r57 running on MiSTer
Yes it was a typo LOL. I have modified my setup more cleaning off any applications and games that crash on boot .

Re: Coffin r57 running on MiSTer
Don't forget you can use VHDTool to convert the img file to a VHD instantly then mount it. This saves the whole step of burning to an SDCard and pulling files back. I have a clean 4GB partition with a clean working setup that is fast on Mister (Havana release) with RTG and Miami setup, I removed the Roadshow demo. I have made a 29MB partition for G...
