how to burn a CD with ...thx, already find it, but...?

This forum is for discussion pertaining to homebrew and indie software for the Dreamcast, such as homebrew games, emulators/interpreters, and other homebrew software/applications. Porting requests and developmental ideas are not to be made here; you can make those here. If you need any help burning discs for homebrew software, this is the place to ask as well.

Yes. DemoMenu can be used like a boot disc for homebrew. If you know how to make selfbooting CD's from plain files, it's also one way (but, in my opinion, not the best way) to put a bunch of DC programs on one disc.

Yes, there is. My suggestion is to go to http://www.sbiffy.com and grab Selfboot Inducer. The first file you will need to download is called 'Sbindv4.exe.' That is an installer program. Run it, and when it asks you for a directory to install, just use the default 'C:\Sbinducr.'

Then, check http://www.sbiffy.com for a VMU tool sbi file. If it's not there (I'm pretty sure that it's not) check DCHelp's SBI page. Save your VMUTool sbi file to C:\Sbinducr\Sbi. Then, follow The Selfboot Inducer v4 tutorial from DCHelp. It should guide you through the entire process. Note that if you want to try a bunch of different programs, games, and emulators for Dreamcast, you can use Selfboot Inducer to put a bunch of things on one disc. When you put your disc in the Dreamcast, you will be presented with an organized menu containing everything you put on the disc. It's really a great utility, and it's easy to use.
