Howto make a bootable Dreamcast CD.

Compiling

The Dreamcast version uses the KallistiOS library from http://cadcdev.sourceforge.net.
I did some changes to KallistiOS (Subversion repository version 560).

Please follow the instructions at http://gamedev.allusion.net/softprj/kos/dcsetup.php to build the cross compiler and KOS library. If you have problems compiling the library you can check the KOS (cadcdev) mailing list on SourceForge.

After you have installed the cross compiler and compiled KOS, adapt src/dc/Makefile.dc to your environment. You'll probably have to change the SHBASE and KOS variables in dc/Makefile.dc to point to your compiler and KOS locations, respectively.

Then you can build the executable, "atari800.elf". In the atari800 src directory type

	make -f dc/Makefile.dc

In order to prepare the executable for CD booting, convert the atari800.elf to a plain binary file with something like "sh-elf-objcopy -R .stack -R .comment -R .bss -R .sbss -O binary atari800.elf atari800.bin" and then scramble it.
