What MAME/emulator related stuff can be run off a USB drive?
« on: February 17, 2007, 08:05:27 am »
I am trying to make an all-in-one USB drive (or maybe a DVD-if that would work) that has lots of emulators, games, and a frontend that autoplays.

Do you guys know of any frontend that will run off a USB hard drive? Or do all of they? How about emulators?

Gracias

all of them.
It would all work the same.
just point the EMU to the roms and go.

I have done it on flash drives. compact flash
and 2 drives. and DVD drive.
never played with external usb drive yet but I see no problem since I wave done it on usb CF and thumb drives

Yep I like to tinker with PC stuff more than the play.
sad aint it.
