This is the result of testing (As of 2010-08-31)
- RPCEmu 0.8.7
- Unofficial IOMD ROM Build from Tom Walker. (Once these changes have been merged into the ROOL tree, a
ROM from ROOL will be usable instead). The ROM Image file required is inside
the archive with a name dUI300-00 or similar. The rest of the softload
application isn't needed with RPCEmu.
- ROOL self extracting hard disc archive - 2010-02-13
RISC OS 5 will run on RPCEmu however many caveats apply, not
least that RPCEmu and RISC OS 5 on IOMD are both of alpha quality.
Limitations
- Does not support IDE harddiscs or CDROM. [1]
- A Restart within RISC OS does not work, as a workaround use the 'Reset' option within RPCEmu.
[1] Although the ROM now supports IDE, this has not yet been enabled on RPCEmu due to the presence of a data loss bug.
Configuration
You can now successfully run a RISC OS !Boot sequence, using HostFS: Type the following commands within RISC OS
*configure filesystem hostfs
*configure boot
