    Thanks madsheep! I got this going after playing around with it.

    Download the file above and the normal one - http://xxx.biskoto.gr/GDEMU_SD.rar
    Replace GDMENU_Builder/data/files/1ST_READ.BIN with the newer one from the GDEMU_SD archive

    Hello,
    I have a question in general about the "IDE MOD".
    Is it not possibel to hook up a PC DVD reader/burner instead the ATA HDD drive?
    DVD´s a big enuff to take a GD-Rom in is original size.
    Or is not possibel to boot from DVD drive?
    I mean the Dreamcast cd rom drive stay inside(no replacement) and the DVD drive as external device like the "G1 ATA Mod"?
    I think it is also a other opportunity how to play GD Rom files on a retail dreamcast.When it were possibel!

    I wonder everybody have there focus on HD/dreamshell,USBEMU and GDEMU!


    Have a nice day!

    Don't use it, it has some issues.

    I got a new one today from mnemo, it's the full firmware this time 3mb.
    (Cannot share & after the last beta I installed I don't want to, as I don't want features broken & me getting the blame)

    What I can say is it seems GDI loading is back to normal & he's added a new txt string under Region Free: on "Select Image for swap - <x> button"

    Codebreaker cheat discs doesn't boot now :(, game shark cheat disc still works.

    To, yes. Using a cdi with vmu explorer or dreamshell and the savefile you want to transfer.

    From, no. There's no way to write to gdemu sd-card, so far.

    If you have a serial sd-card as well as gdemu you can do it though (which is my case).
