There is already some C code online for netbooting, so shouldn't be hard.

Wanting to try and make it locate the Naomi using a nmap -sn 10.0.0.* sort of command, although the IP could just be put in the config.

Add to global config:

NETBOOT_IP 10.0.0.25
NETBOOT_ROMS_FOLDER ~/.openjvs/roms/

Add to each game config:

NETBOOT_GAME crazy_taxi.bin

Have done this - currently IP is in the configuration file, and there is no NETBOOT_GAME setting only chooses the rom with the same name.

  • Need to do the nmap thing
  • Need to add the setting in for NETBOOT_GAME

would be cool to support an i2c touchscreen such as https://www.adafruit.com/product/1983

I am thinking of creating a custom board with a small OLED screen on it, however if the i2c touch screen isn't too expensive, and I can fit it onto a board that is compatible with the pins required to run OpenJVS I'd be more than happy to add this!
