Hey I'm pretty new to the dreamcast scene so You have no idea how relieved I am over finding this site

Just bought my first dc from ebay a few weeks ago, I bought a few games and played around with burning a few, but have only had a small amount of luck. 

Hopefully I can figure everything out, especially since I'm on linux, and can soon start my own homebrew.

thanks Tieden

Sounds good, welcome aboard!  I am not familiar with burning Dreamcast games on Linux, but there is not a native application to my knowledge that can burn CDI images.  I would recommend running BootDreams with Wine if that works.

lol@will

welcome tieden you can always burn the discs with cdrecord. there should be a linux version of it i think. still, except for mac os, linux is the worst system to use when it comes to handling dc-isos, because almost all tools that were ever written for it require windows. i don't know how good wine can emulate a dos-environment, because that's what most of those tools need

oh and if the dc has problems booting burnt games just try on a diff drive burner mby even on a diff computer that was the problem for me and now 8 mby 9 out of 10 times it works flawlessly

Hmmm. Burning DC-Isos in Linux that sounds like a alot of trouble. However some smaller Linux based games have been ported to Dreamcast. Either way I have no doubt you will grow to love your Dreamcast more and more everyday and realize what a terrific little machine it is and what its capable of. Your very lucky to have come across this site so value it while you are here and Oh Yeah. Welcome!
