This file contains information useful to those upgrading to a new release of RomWBW.
-
Please review the "Upgrading" Section of the RomWBW User Guide.
-
Many RomWBW-specific applications are locked to the ROM version being used. After upgrading your ROM, you will need to upgrade your disk-based RomWBW applications and OS boot files.
-
RomWBW is now more strict with respect to hard disk partition tables. If your hard disk media was created using any of the pre-built disk image files, this will not affect you. Otherwise, you may find you are unable to access slices beyond the first slice. If so, use FDISK80 to reset the partition table on the disk. This will restore normal access to all slices. Only do this if you are having an issue.

For those building custom ROMs that are overriding
DEFSERCFG
, note that this setting has been moved to a#DEFINE
instead of an equate (.SET
or.EQU
). You will find this#DEFINE
at the top of all standard config files. You will need to change your setting to a#DEFINE
at the top of your config file and remove any.SET
or.EQU
lines forDEFSERCFG

Combining config settings
AUTOCON
andVDAEMU_SERKBD
causes issues at the boot loader prompt. So, all config files have been changed to consistently enableAUTOCON
and disableVDAEMU_SERKBD
($FF
). If are want to useVDAEMU_SERKBD
, you need to set it in your config file as well as disabling AUTOCON.
