- The installer speaks without "you": the first screen asks "Where to install?", rows read "Copy the BIOS files from an old card or a folder", a close match reads "Close matches: ...". The handheld launchers and their port text follow, and the pronoun guard no longer lists any installer message. - A setup that runs as an app opens on its one-line command, the folder table after it; a setup that runs on its own device keeps the network folder first, which its ZIP route needs. - The home steps say what to do: "Its page gives one line to copy", "Paste it, press Enter".
Notes
RetroBIOS runs the RetroBIOS installer (install.py, from
github.com/Abdess/retrobios) on the
device, in its full-screen interface. The installer finds the BIOS folder of
the system, checks every file its emulators read against its hash, and
installs the missing ones.
With a network connection the files are downloaded. Without one, copy the
BIOS pack of the system (a _BIOS_Pack.zip file from the releases page)
into ports/retrobios on the card, and RetroBIOS installs from it.
Python 3.8 or newer: the system's, or PortMaster's python_3.11 runtime on
aarch64, downloaded on first use.
Under a desktop session with neither foot nor xterm, RetroBIOS opens PortMaster's own screens instead of the full-screen interface.
