Technical notes
emux is a multi-system emulator by Sebastien Ronsse. The libretro port renamed the boot ROM from DMG_ROM.bin (upstream, gb_mapper.c:32) to dmg_boot.bin (libretro, gb_mapper.c:35) to match RetroArch conventions.
Boot ROM loaded via file_map(PATH_SYSTEM, "dmg_boot.bin", 0, 256) in gb_mapper_init (gb_mapper.c:225-228). Returns false on failure — no HLE fallback. Mapped at 0x0000-0x00FF, overlays ROM0 until BOOT_LOCK (0xFF50) is written non-zero (lock_writeb, gb_mapper.c:97-106).
No hash validation. Code accepts any 256+ byte file. is_experimental=true. No save states, rewind, or netplay.
