It's THE answer to many bad Flash !!!

If you choose GPBioS, it's maybe the first but it's surely the last time you flash your GP32.


What it is exactly ?
It's a bios which run boot.bin or boot.fxe on the directory of your SMC
Do you want to boot with wind-ups on a smc and boot with the original korean firmware on an other smc ?
Don't need to reflash your gp32.
It's possible and it's too simple with this GPBioS.


And ?
And others things !!! Do you want to boot to your favourite game, application or emulator ? it's possible with GPBioS
Rename your fxe to boot.fxe on your
gp://gpmm/ directory and you'll boot to this application.
If you want to stop to boot with this application, renamme it to the original name. (A or B when you start your gp32 to boot with the kr-en firmware)


There is a new firmware and i want to test it on my gp32 but i don't want to flash my gp32
Cool, GPBioS is for you. It's simple. Only rename this firmware to boot.bin and put this file in the gp:// directory or gp://gpmm/ directory.
And your gp32 can now boot with this new Firmware.


"I'm a firmware maker.. i don't understand why your bios is good."
With this bios, you can test on your gp32 your firmware that you are making without flash your gp32.
Only rename your fxe or your bin file to boot.fxe or boot.bin and put this file to the
gp:// directory or gp://gpmm/ directory.
And now your gp boot with your firmware... or not ;)

And if there is a problem ?
No problem ! push A or B when you boot your gp32 and the kr-en firmware boot. ( not your boot.bin or boot.fxe )

And if i have no boot.fxe or boot.bin on my gp32 ?
Your GP32 will boot with the kr-en firmware.

Ok i want to boot with my mp3player or with GPCinema directly but it's on the same SMC.
No problem. Rename your mp3player to "boot1.fxe" and your gpcinema to "boot2.fxe"
When you start your gp32, push the start button to run mp3player or push the select button to run your gpcinema.
It's fast and it works !!!!
You can use others things like this to boot with your favourite game or emulator :)


Oh yeah it's so cool. I want to test the last firmware of a friend but it's dangerous no ?
No no, rename the firmware of your friend to "boot.fxe" if it's a .fxe or "boot.bin" if it's a .bin file and put this file to the gp:// directory or gp://gpmm/ directory

It's my first and last flash ?
Yeah !!!!!
Now your smc is like an Hard Disk and your Operating System is on your smc !!
Change now your OS on your SMC, not on your GP32 !!!
