Linux is definitely the way to go. You only have to get it set up once, then ghost the drive (as long as it's mostly the same hardware.) I have my machine running Arch Linux (it's kinda minimalistic) and it boots up directly into Wahcade FE. If I were to skip the GRUB bootloader (it is dual-boot to XP,) it would boot completely in around 20-30 seconds. Athlon XP 1700+. Much better than XP on the same machine. |

Is the OneStation considered legal? I am seriously considering building an arcade from one. |

It also has its own basic launcher. You just gotta put the disc in when you want to play. Let me know, Xam --- End quote --- Not true. This disc is not copy-protected. |

I think I'm going to check out the Jaxx hack information on this site when the search comes back up. Next auction isn't until September, so I have some time to ruminate. --- End quote --- here, this is a good start... Mark completed this project hacking a few Jakks controllers for his son's cabinet... http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=36591.0 |
