DESCRIPTION

     CDBoot is a tool for booting almost any available CD32 game on
     any A1200 or A4000.

     CDBoot works with any AT/SCSI/PCMCIA-CDROM drive and any
     available CD-filesystem.

     It is possible to create config-files for each CD, where a
     specific joypad-emulation and language-selection can be saved.
     The emulation supports up to four joypads, like planed by
     commodore.

     Game highscores are saved to disk or harddisk (if highscore-
     saving is supported by the game), with the nonvolatile RAM
     emulation.

     Usage and installation (commodore-installer) is very easy. There
     is no need to press any keys or buttons during startup to boot a
     CD. Harddisk-usage is supported as well as disk-usage. CDBoot
     can also be removed again with the supplied installation-script.

     The games are playable with joystick and/or keyboard as well as
     with an original CD32-joypad. Special emulations for some games,
     which would need a joypad for serious playing (e.g.
     SuperStardust by Team 17tm) are internal included and are
     described on the install-disk.

     CDXL-Anims will be played on any CD-filesytem.

     Playing ECS-games (released on CD) with an upgraded OS3.x ECS-
     Amiga like A3000(T) is also possible, but not guaranteed.

     Pure audio-Tracks are not supported for all controllers/
     filesystems due to incompatibilities to the original cd-access
     of the CD32.
