The instructions in SYSTEMDISK\emedora don't work. Whenever
you hit a visual scene the game will hang because the labels
on Visual Disk A and B are corrupt.

Here I present WORKING instructions for installing Emerald
Dragon on your X68000 HD0 image.

First, boot with a X68000 System Disk image (SHARP has
released their system disk and BIOS as public domain).

Your system disk will be A: and HD will be C:

Type the following:

A:>C:

C:>MKDIR EMEDRA
C:>MKDIR EMEDRA\SYSDATA
C:>MKDIR EMEDRA\MUSIC
C:>MKDIR EMEDRA\MAPDATA
C:>MKDIR EMEDRA\TALKDATA
C:>MKDIR EMEDRA\FIGHTDATA
C:>MKDIR EMEDRA\MOVER
C:>MKDIR EMEDRA\VISDATA
C:>MKDIR EMEDRA\USERDATA

*Insert the Emerald Dragon System Disk

C:>CD EMEDRA
C:>COPY B:\MDEVICE.SYS
C:>COPY B:\EMEDRA\*.*
C:>COPY B:\SYSDATA\*.* SYSDATA
C:>COPY B:\MUSIC\*.* MUSIC
C:>COPY B:\MAPDATA\*.* MAPDATA

*Insert the Emerald Dragon Data Disk

C:>COPY B:\TALKDATA\*.* TALKDATA
C:>COPY B:\FIGHTDATA\*.* FIGHTDATA
C:>COPY B:\MOVER\*.* MOVER

*Insert the Emerald Dragon Visual Disk A

C:>COPYALL B:\VISDATA\*.* VISDATA

*Insert the Emerald Dragon Visual Disk B

C:>COPYALL B:\VISDATA\*.* VISDATA

*Insert the Emerald Dragon Ending Disk

C:>COPYALL B:\VISDATA\*.* VISDATA

C:>CD ..

C:>ED CONFIG.SYS

*This will open the X68K EDIT utility. It is really similar
to VI. Use the arrow keys to get to a new line or press RETURN
to create on if needed, type the following:

DEVICE = \EMEDRA\MDEVICE.SYS

*Now press ESC then X (the letter x) to save the file and
quit.

C:>CD EMEDRA
C:>ED EMEDRA.SYS

*There are two sets of paths in this file. Edit both to match
the following:

PATH SYS = \EMEDRA\SYSDATA
PATH MAP = \EMEDRA\MAPDATA
PATH MOVER = \EMEDRA\MOVER
PATH MUSIC = \EMEDRA\MUSIC
PATH TALK = \EMEDRA\TALKDATA
PATH FIGHT = \EMEDRA\FIGHTDATA
PATH VISUAL = \EMEDRA\VISDATA
PATH USER = \EMEDRA\USERDATA

*Again press ESC then X to save and exit

Remove all disks from your machine and reboot the X68000
console. Updon starting type:

C:>CD EMEDRA
C:>EMEDRA

This will launch the game. It will prompt you to insert your
Emerald Dragon System Disk just to verify you have the game.
Insert it and begin.

There is no intro Load screen. You will always start on the
mountain shrine so to resume your last play, hit ESC to bring
up the menu and press 7 for the system menu, then 1 to load
(you can load from your System Disk save or User Disk save at
this point).

You should also configure your emulator to map the X68000
key, "HELP," to a key that actually exists on your keyboard.
"HELP" is the key you can press in-game to see a map of the
area (if you have obtained one).

Enjoy, this really is a kickass version of the game.
