hi,

This is my first post to this group so hello everyone.

After reading this post and the replies I gave the following a try:

I got a copy of the web browser from:
http://www.megagames.com/dc/dc_utils_misc.shtml

Modified the HTML file that loads when the browser starts up
(DRMCST.HTM or DRMSTRT.HTM) to contain just a bunch of links to some
VMS and VMI files I put on the CD.

After burning about 10 coasters trying various selfboot methods I
just use the good old Echelon method.

Result:
The browser showed my new HTML file.
Clicking VMS or VMI files just opened the files in the browser window.

Conclusion:
Using the web browser to send VMS to VMU will not work. Unless anyone
has any other ideas.

I think what we need is some Dreamcast program that can copy files
off a cd too the VMU. I haven't tried any Dreamcast programming so
I'm not the one for the job. But I've seen homebrewed stuff that
writes to the VMU. I don't know if there is a different protocol for
writing save game data than writing a VMU game to the VMU or how the
VMU differentiates a game from data. Anyone have any thoughts?

Walter,
