Boot problem with eXo/Flynn files

Unread post by AmintaMister »

Hi all!

I'm using the eXo/Flynn files (Top 300 is updated via script to the last version).

I've this boot problem only the first time I boot the core: if I choose "apply HD and reset" it works.

Why?

Have you saved the setting after restart. So it is mounted at next boot?

Yes, but if I reboot MiSTer, at next boot I have the same problem...

Your bios is out of date. You need the latest boot0 and boot1 from here: https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/ao486_M ... r/releases. Those go in the root of your AO486 directory. That is your problem.
