Gnuboy definitely won't work on that device, but PalmGB might. It might also be extremely slow if it does run, so temper your expectations.
You'd ideally run the installer
(on the desktop machine, with your H/PC connected
), although I have no idea how well that works on a modern machine. I just copied the files onto my device and did the rename -- but my CE2.0 machine is an LG Phenom and not an HP360LX, so there is small a chance these steps won't work.
You should be able to get it to run if you copied the files from the .zip onto the device.
Remove the .SH3 extension from any files in the PalmGB folder.. Make sure
Hide file extensions is turned off
(in Explorer on your H/PC, go to
View >
Options, and
Hide file extensions should be on the bottom
).
It should have a .EXE extension when you're finished, and you can just run it.
PocketDOS also has an installer that expects to be run from a desktop system.
If you can't get the installer for PocketDOS working on your system, you can still get the files out by extracting them from the installer with 7-Zip on your desktop.
With 7-Zip installed, right-click the PocketDOS setup .exe and go to
7-Zip >
Extract to (name of file
), which will give you .CAB files that you can copy onto the device. Open them up on your H/PC to install them.
You'll want to install at least the .CAB files for FreeDOS and for the SH3 version of the program.
PocketDOS will also be VERY slow once it is running -- it's quite slow even on my Jornada 680.
