ROM (Bios)

• TOWNSROM

  copy /b fmt_dos.rom+fmt_dic.rom+fmt_fnt.rom+fmt_f20.rom+fmt_sys.rom boot.rom

• First you have to find the files I mentioned above, usually a zip file or 7z file which contains them for example [BIOS] FM Towns [ROM] [Set 1].7z.
• Once unzipped you will get several files like:

  fmt_dic.rom
  fmt_dos.rom
  fmt_f20.rom
  fmt_fnt.rom
  fmt_sys.rom

• To create the bios.rom:

  copy /b fmt_dos.rom+fmt_dic.rom+fmt_fnt.rom+fmt_f20.rom+fmt_sys.rom bios.rom

• I used fmtownsa.zip from the mame rom set to get the fmt_* files... and while I didn't do any indepth testing/playing around with the core, it does boot and searches for floppy/harddrive... which I haven't gotten that far yet... other events keep taking me away...
