What is the easiest method to get GCOS up and running on my SD card via SD Gecko? I would love to be able to play my backup games but don't want to spend $50 on SD media launcher! Here's what I have: -512MB SD card -SD Gecko -USB SD card adapter -GCOS v1.5 -SDLOAD 1.0 I've read that I need an action replay to boot every time, but no one seems to be sure whether the newer versions currently for sale (v1.6+) will work. I've read they took out the ability to enter your own code, but you can change the "master code" somehow to get that functionality back? I guess I'll also need a 2nd memory card. Will any old card work or does it have to be genuine nintendo? Thanks!
I am using AR 1.18 PAL version. I got it from the "usual places". Just google action replay gamecube torrent It works fine using the tutorial here; http://en.linux.wikia.com/wiki/GameCube_Linux/SDload
My bad, I have a chipped cube (XenoGC) and this is my method to get GCOS working. If you do not have the ability to run a burned AR copy, then the SD Media launcher is probably the best alternative. Either that or look out for a cheap original AR.
