All you need is ROM's and a copy of the OS (I use 3.9 on CD) to get it running, it's dead simple.
Most recent install I did of it, it took me under 3 minutes to install and get fired up on an SSD machine using a mounted ISO image of 3.9 (using Windows 8.1 system, I'm not too familiar with it on non Windoze or Linux machines).
It's really a lovely piece of software that really does not get the praise it deserves.
