nope we wouldnt need the boot cd and only the copied games would work on it, due to the pc not being able to read GD-roms

Ripped GD roms could be played as ISOs

Jhonny : I spoke to lordcheese and he said this is a project he is working on alone in his spare time! Besides I like to see 2 emu's progressing their different ways!

jhonny: Firstly there is no way Icarus and Dreamemu would ever join. It wouldnt at all give interesting results either.

Secondly although a few games are certainly 'running' in a sense, the problem is that the rendering isnt very stable and the results can often look very messed up due to lack of omplementation for certain compression schemes. Anyhow, if i get a chance ill take a pic of the now loading screen from jet grind radio, and perhaps even a pic of how messed up unreal tournament is looking!

Also, one of the methods for testing original gdroms in Icarus will be to hook up the dreamcast to your pc via broadband adaptor or lan adaptor, and with appropriate server software running on the dreamcast dynamically load data from the gdrom as is needed. This way, you have no need to spend a long time 'dumping' a gdrom, and it completely avoids legality issues of providing ppl with methods to create isos of games.

Is it possible to get a driver that allows you to put your DC GD drive in a PC in order to play games??? I have a spare DC and am willing to dismantle it for emulation purposes???

Well, it might be possible to hack up a pci card that lets you connect the GD-Rom drive to it, or if the interface is similar to IDE/SCSI some interface between the two could be built. I doubt it's worth the effort, as it would take a hell of a lot of hacking. Basically: NO.
