Using Selfboot to Create a Selfbooting Disc Image

December 30th, 2008

Selfboot was one of the first projects developed by burnerO. Selfboot is a handy little application that automates the process of creating a selfbooting disc image for use on your Dreamcast. Selfboot uses the plain files packages that are available from many Dreamcast-related sites. Selfboot is not compatible with commercial products, and will only successfully create a selfbooting image of packages developed with the free, open-source KallistiOS (KOS) development kit.

  • SBILinux – This is a Linux port of SBInducer. This is a command-line tool, intended to run under WinE.
  • Selfboot Inducer v4 – this is version 4 of burnerO’s incredible proggie. Check it out. There are lots of great new features.
  • Selfboot – an application designed to help you burn plain files onto a selfbooting disc for use in your Dreamcast.
  • Selfboot Inducer v3 – an application designed to help you burn multiple emulators, applications, demos, homebrew games and ported games onto one selfbooting disc for use in your Dreamcast.
  • Dir2Boot – this is basically an early version of Selfboot. It has a slightly simpler interface than Selfboot, but only offers the option to create CDI and Disc-At-Once NRG images. There is no CDRecord GUI built in, nor is there the option to create a Track-At-Once NRG image (which is now required in order to burn things with newer versions of Nero). It’s still a handy, fast little program for people using old versions of Nero, Alcohol 120% or DiscJuggler to burn their projects.
  • IP Patch 1.2 – This is a neat little tool for patching IP.bin files.
