How to use Blizkick
« on: April 25, 2009, 11:07:31 PM »
Hi all,

I've just (finally!) downloaded Blizkick. I've heard it's really good but I'll admit, I'm at a loss to understand what I need to do.

All the routines mean nothing to me or what they do.

Can someone put it in layman's terms, what I need to do?

For example, I know the Maprom jumper needs to be set, but how can I tell that it is?

Sorry for being such a noob, but we all gotta learn somewhere  :-o

Wow, no one ever helped out dude man.

I'd like to see an answer to this my self.

That's because it's hard to do ;)

Once you get it working though, it's great...the first thing I'd get working on any Blizzard equipped classic system.

Rubbish it's easy peasy to do, if you want I'll put together a quick guide for those who obviously can't be bothered to figure it out for themselves on how to easily set up blizkick... lazy buggers... :)

blizkick * [modules] [patchs]
I think.. I'll have to check my older startup-sequence. I've found it easier to use remus and stuff the patches/modules into a custom rom instead, then you just need
blizkick romfilename

The tricky thing is just figuring out which mods work and which order they're in, and Remus seems to catch any mistakes before needing to reboot and stare at a red screen.
