Does not boot #4

Ask a question

Hi

I got the rom, renamed tama.b to rom.bin (guessing that one since it does not say in the documentation...?)

...what now? All I get is the colorful image on boot, nothing then...

Did you open settings and select Reset? That should fix your booting issues.

On another note, what would you like to see improved in the documentation? Platform Installation does call out how to obtain the ROM, and that it's named rom.bin on the Analogue Pocket, but I agree that the mix between Pocket and MiSTer is confusing. Any ideas/suggestions are appreciated.

Reset worked (thanks for the tip)

Improvement to the documentation: a) As mentioned it was unclear that I had to rename tama.b to rom.bin b) This issue. "If you get blank screen, reset Core"

Thanks. I have added a small snippet to the beginning of the install instructions. Let me know if you think it needs more details.

I neglected to mention this earlier, but I did add a FAQ section to the bottom of the README that covers the reset case. Would you like to see something in addition to that?

I can't see the video, by the way

Thanks for that.

Indeed you did cover my initial problem in the FAQ, shame on me for not consulting that.
