# FlashPi
An ultra fast booting Retroflag GPI Image - Gameboy / Gameboy Color only


FlashPi uses a striped down and optimized RetroPi image based on the SupremeTeam release, a patched version of Gnuboy as the emulator, and a custom shell based menu.

The boot time can be reduced to about 20 seconds by using a microSDXC UHS-I card.

Usage:

-The rom files have got to be put into the directory /boot/roms/...

-Exit emu: left shoulder button

-Save game state: Y button (feature not yet implemented)

-Load game state: X button (feature not yet implemented)




v1.2

-Moved ROM directory to /boot (no more ext3 driver needed)

-Increased size of boot partition to 1GB

-Added subdirectory support

-Removed requirement for file renaming

-Added Gameboy Color support

-Reduced required time for booting to 20s


Caveats:

-If you do only see a blinking cursor after the bootlogo has been displayed, then there are no rom files present in the /boot/roms directory.
