    I have installed a hdd in my dreamcast.
    For the bios I have used: boot_loader_devkit_nogdrom.bios.
    The file came in DreamShell 4.0 RC 4 + Boot Loader.
    I have copied the DS folder to the hdd.
    The problem is that the Dreamshell will not boot unless I have the gdrom connected.
    What am I doing wrong?

    Thank you, I will try to link those points. If I do that, I will have problems with some games?

    EDIT: I have tried the wire method, but it isn't working.

    After all this time I found some crystals. But it still doesn't work without the gdrom board.
