-A pack holds the files its emulators read, as their source code names them, and leaves out what the emulators install themselves.
+Some consoles need a small program, the **BIOS**, to start their games: PlayStation 1 and 2, Saturn, Neo Geo, Dreamcast and more. RetroBIOS installs the BIOS and firmware files for AmberELEC, Batocera, BizHawk, EmuDeck, EmuELEC, KNULLI, Lakka, MiSTer FPGA, MinUI, MyMinUI, NextUI, ROCKNIX, Recalbox, RetroArch, RetroBat, RetroDECK, RetroPie, and RomM, checked the way each one checks them.

-## Download BIOS packs
+## Or download a ZIP
-A pack holds its platform's own BIOS list plus the files its emulator cores load. What no pack carries yet is in the [gap analysis](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/gaps/). Pick your platform, download the ZIP, extract to the BIOS path. Each Download link is a page that keeps its address from one release to the next. The installer above does the same file by file: its screen installs everything, or fewer under **Choose systems**, and `--system`, `--core`, `--region` and `--target` make the same choice without questions. For a bare minimum, build your own pack below.
+The Files column counts what a pack holds once unzipped.
-A pack over 2 GB comes in several parts (`Pack.part1of2.zip`, `Pack.part2of2.zip`), and every part is needed. Each part is an ordinary ZIP: extract them all into the same folder.
-
-Every release ships `SHA256SUMS.txt` and a detached signature of it, checkable against `allowed_signers` in this repository: [verifying a release](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/wiki/release-process/#verifying-a-release).
-
-The Files column counts what a pack holds once extracted, the figure a file manager shows for the folder. It differs from one platform to the next because a pack carries only what that platform's emulators load. The size is what the files occupy once extracted, and the ZIP itself downloads smaller.

-## What's included
+Unzip into the BIOS folder, files straight in it. A big pack comes in parts (`Pack.part1of2.zip`): download every part ([why some setups have no ZIP](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/wiki/faq/#why-is-there-no-zip-for-my-setup)). Each release lists its files' SHA-256 with a signature ([verifying a release](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/wiki/release-process/#verifying-a-release)).
-BIOS, firmware, and system files for consoles from Atari to PlayStation 3.
-These are the files an emulator loads from disk instead of carrying inside itself. Some are required to boot a system, others improve accuracy or unlock a feature, and the packs carry both.
+## Help
-Each file is checked the way your platform checks it. Most compare a checksum, the fingerprint of a file's contents, which catches a corrupt or unexpected copy. RetroArch, Lakka and RetroPie check that the file is present under its name without reading its contents (`path_is_valid` in RetroArch's `core_info.c`), and MinUI, NextUI and MyMinUI hand each core its folder without opening a file in it: the Coverage table says which applies to you. Independently of that, the collection records five fingerprints per file, and wherever an emulator's code states an expected size or hash, that value is read from its source and rechecked here.

-Each fraction is what the pack has over what is needed, counting required and optional files alike since both ship. The first column is the BIOS list the platform publishes. The second counts files its emulators load that this list never mentions, found by reading their source code, and it is routinely several times larger. A short fraction means files are still missing, and they are named in the [gap analysis](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/gaps/).
-That second number is a floor, not a ceiling: an emulator that accepts any file handed to it names none in its code, so nothing there can be counted.
-Checked by is the test your platform runs on its own, replicated here from its source code, so the result matches what you would see in the frontend ([how each one works](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/wiki/verification-modes/)).
-
-## Build your own pack
+
+For developers: build a pack
Packs are built from a clone, and the clone carries the collection: its checkout alone is over 7.7 GB. `git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Abdess/retrobios.git` leaves the history out. Files kept as release assets are downloaded when a pack needs them. Then generate packs for any platform, emulator, or system:
```bash
-# The pack of a platform, as released
python scripts/generate_pack.py --platform retroarch --output-dir dist/
-python scripts/generate_pack.py --platform batocera --output-dir dist/
-
-# Single emulator or system
python scripts/generate_pack.py --emulator dolphin
-python scripts/generate_pack.py --system sony-playstation-2
-
-# One region, best first, one file per system and region
-python scripts/generate_pack.py --platform retroarch --region us,eu,jp
-python scripts/generate_pack.py --platform retroarch --region us --one-per-slot
-
-# Firmware only: the game data a list or a core names is left out, each file named
-python scripts/generate_pack.py --platform emuelec --no-game-data
-
-# The bare minimum: only the files each core needs to start
python scripts/generate_pack.py --platform batocera --required-only
-
-# List available emulators and systems
-python scripts/generate_pack.py --list-emulators
-python scripts/generate_pack.py --list-systems
-
-# Coverage of this repository's collection per platform, emulator or system
-# (it reads database.json and bios/: for your own BIOS folder, run the installer with --check)
-python scripts/verify.py --all
python scripts/verify.py --platform batocera
-python scripts/verify.py --emulator flycast
-python scripts/verify.py --platform retroarch --verbose # emulator ground truth
```
-Requires Python 3.9 or newer and `pyyaml`. The one-line installer alone runs on Python 3.8.
+Requires Python 3.9 or newer and `pyyaml`. The one-line installer alone runs on Python 3.8. Every tool and option: [tools](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/wiki/tools/). How the lists are built: [architecture](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/wiki/architecture/).
-## Documentation site
-
-The [documentation site](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/) provides:
-
-- **Per-platform pages** with file-by-file verification status and hashes
-- **Per-emulator profiles** with source code references for every file
-- **Per-system pages** showing which emulators and platforms cover each console
-- **Gap analysis** identifying missing files and undeclared core requirements
-- **Cross-reference** mapping files across 18 platforms and 623 emulators
-- **Versioned data access** through JSON, CSV and SQLite exports with published SHA-256 checksums
-
-## How it works
-
-A platform's BIOS list and an emulator's code are maintained separately. Each list is compared with the emulator source code, file by file where a profile exists, and where the two differ the code decides.
-
-Hashes document what emulator code loads and accepts, not dump provenance. That boundary, and how it relates to preservation catalogs such as No-Intro, is drawn in the [technical questions](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/wiki/technical-faq/#are-these-files-verified-against-original-hardware-dumps).
-
-1. **Read emulator source code**: trace every file the code loads, its expected hash and size
-2. **Cross-reference with platforms**: match against what each platform declares
-3. **Build packs**: include baseline files plus what each platform's cores need
-4. **Verify**: run platform-native checks and emulator-level validation

+# Security policy
+
+## Scope
+
+- The one-line installer: `install.sh`, `install.ps1` and the `install.py` they download.
+- The packs, their manifests under `install/` and the checksums each release publishes.
+- The website, its scripts and the data it serves under `api/`.
+
+## Reporting a vulnerability
+
+Report it privately from the repository's **Security** tab, with **Report a vulnerability**. A public issue is the wrong place for it: the details stay private until a fix is out.
+
+A useful report names the file or the page, the steps that show the problem, and what an attacker gains.
+
+## Supported versions
+
+The installer and the site served from `main`, and the latest release. Older releases are removed when a new one is published.
+
+## How downloads are checked
+
+- `install.sh` and `install.ps1` download `install.py` from a fixed commit and refuse it unless its SHA-256 matches the one they carry.
+- The installer checks every file against the hash its manifest records before writing it.
+- Each release lists the SHA-256 of its files in `SHA256SUMS.txt`, signed with the key in `allowed_signers`: [verifying a release](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/wiki/release-process/#verifying-a-release).

+## Not a security issue
+
+A file with an unexpected hash, a missing file or a takedown request: [open an issue](https://github.com/Abdess/retrobios/issues/new) with the file's path or hash.

+Each recording is the installer on an ArkOS SD card that holds six games: it
+finds the card, plans only the BIOS files those games need, installs them
+and shows the summary. Two variants, by where the install box says the
+command runs:
+
+- default: the one-line command in a terminal on a Linux computer, the card
+ mounted at /media/EASYROMS. The README and every tab but one show it.
+- handheld: the full-screen interface on ArkOS itself, at the 640x480
+ screen of an R36S, as the Tools menu launcher starts it (ports/shared/
+ tui.txt: install.py --tui, RETROBIOS_PAD=gptokeyb, RETROBIOS_IDLE_EXIT).
+ The keys typed are the ones gptokeyb sends for the buttons
+ (ports/shared/retrobios.gptk: A is Enter), and the bottom line names the
+ buttons. The "On the device" tab shows it.
+
+No Windows variant: pwsh on Linux runs install.ps1's whole flow, but the
+installer reads drive E: there only through its WSL layout, and its summary
+gives the command back with --dest /mnt/e/bios, a path no Windows user sees.
+
+Everything a recording reads is local and the same on every machine:
- The card is built under tmp/demo/ (bios/, the folders ArkOS writes on its
- games partition, one game per console) and mounted at /media/EASYROMS in a
- mount namespace of this user (unshare), on a tmpfs of a card's size. /media
- and /mnt are emptied there, so no drive of this machine is shown.
+ games partition, one game per console) on a tmpfs of a card's size, in a
+ mount namespace of this user (unshare, or bwrap for the handheld, whose
+ root holds ArkOS's /home/ark, /opt/system and /roms). /media and /mnt are
+ emptied, so no drive of this machine is shown.
- The repository is served on 127.0.0.1 and named with RETROBIOS_BASE_URL:
the file lists, install/games/ and the BIOS files are this checkout's.
-- The one-line command runs this checkout's install.sh and install.py. The

- starts the local install.sh, which skips the download of the installer and
- its SHA-256 check and runs the rest of the bootstrap as the site's copy does.
