The MSX2 core seems to support harddisk files only. But I have several .rom files - how to load them?
MSX2 how to load .rom files?
Re: MSX2 how to load .rom files?
It’s a while since I fiddled with it so I haven’t any advice on setting it up, but there’s an MSX program called sofarun that will launch ROMs for you. Put it and your .ROMs, .DSKs and so on in a vhd.
Re: MSX2 how to load .rom files?
Thank you for your advice.
But I would like to know why there is no option in the MiSTer menu to mount a ROM or Diskimage. The MSX 1 core has such a menu - the MSX 2 core not. And I wonder why and if there is a method of mounting them?
Re: MSX2 how to load .rom files?
If you want to use cartridge of floppy disk files with MSX2, I recommend to not use the "MSX" core (which is actually based on "modern" 1chipMSX project instead of actual MSX2 computers), but rather use a beta version of the "MSX1" core upgraded with MSX2 support. It is currently listed on GitHub as a separate branch of MSX1.

The MSX2 uses a different method of using BIOS files, so I'd also recommend to look at the core description page by Vampier.
