Maybe I should have said that the Softloader is not intended to be used by RPCEmu. > Like Select RO is started the boot sequence on 5.19 then the Softload > started (Y/N) and continues after that to 5.20 > > I followed Steve's instructions step by step. In https://www.riscosopen.org/wiki/documentation/show/RISC%20OS%20Upgrade Steve Revill says that This is a brief guide to the steps that you should probably go through when upgrading from one version of RISC OS to the next. It does not include instructions for system-specific issues ... In this case, the system-specific issues are found in the RPCEmu User Manual, where http://www.marutan.net/rpcemu/manual/romimage.html says that These files [ROM images] should then be copied to the machine running RPCEmu and placed in the 'roms' directory. and http://www.marutan.net/rpcemu/ro5.html notes Unofficial IOMD ROM Build from Tom Walker. (Once these changes have been merged into the ROOL tree, a ROM from ROOL will be usable instead). The ROM Image file required is inside the archive with a name dUI300-00 or similar. The rest of the softload application isn't needed with RPCEmu. > And towards the end of the process he writes... > > * add the RISC OS 5.20 softload. > > Which is exactly what I did. It's clear, from the rpcemu links, that the ROM should be removed from the softload and installed, on its own, in the 'roms' folder.
