Issue with zx next boot.vhd

Unread post by xboxown »

Hey guys
I have issue with teh zxnext.
I have downloaded the boot.vhd file
it asks me to select the proper boot.vhd file
I do. When it boots it asks me to select the proper screen mode. I do. When it says you are happy I press Y
then instantly it goes error unable to save configuration and cannot get zxnet working
any advise
It even complains about these files:TBBLUE.FW and TBBLUE.TBU

Any advise?

Are you using a second SD card with this core?

I think you need the expansion board with second SD card to run this core.

See the Help Menu on MiSTer and select ZXNext.

I assume they mean an IO board

I has a you tube
Analog IO
USB board
VGA > Component
HDMI > FPM

I have the digital io board with 128 MB. Isn't that enough?

Where did you download the boot.vhd file from?
If from the core's github page, it should be boot.zip so I am going to assume you unzipped the file into /media/fat/games/ZXNext correct?
Also how did you transfer the file over onto the SD card?

I got it working finally! It had to be put in the main SD card the one where fusion is installed and not the external HDD.
