   Hello Vince,   
      
   16 Jul 15 14:53, you wrote to me:

   To boot off of a Raspberry Pi, you need to use a SD or microSD card (depending    
   on model), unless they've hacked the CPU to boot off of a drive connected to    
   the GPIO, as far as I know.  I've never heard of anyone doing that myself.   
      
   Sadly, since there's no good DOS emulator for the RPi, I won't be using one    
   for the BBS.  My users love their DOS doorgames. :)
