You've got to run the genbuild.bat script from your sources directory.

ok so copy the genbuild.bat to the sources directory?

ok i got it now a few questions:

does the devkit automatically do all of the header stuff?

and is there any tutorials floating around the net?

Usually I just run it from a cmd.exe term in the source directory.

You're talking about the header of the rom ? From what I remember it's in sega.s in some directory :D

I think for now most of the documentation you can find is on this forum and on Fonzie and Kaneda website (http://www.genny4ever.net and http://www.spritesmind.net respectivly).
