This is interesting...

My RO3.70 ROM image didn't pass the checksum; I get:

$ sha1sum roms/riscos-3.70.rom 
e7cb05c9925dd0d7d9d5ff6f74244066c5c87e34  roms/riscos-3.70.rom

I don't recall where the image came from - my 3.70 ROMs are currently in 
a defective motherboard... I /think/ they came from that, but I could be 
wrong.

... and ya know what?  With that 3.70 ROM image I too get nothing but 
the blue screen.

And the reason it gets that is that the cpu_type is wrong in the rpc.cfg 
file.  And the reason the CPU type is wrong is because the bash script 
never got to change it because the ROM checksum failed and aborted the 
process.

Out of interest, what's the sha1sum of your ROM, David?

But interestingly, that same ROM image works perfectly in an older 32-
bit build of RPCemu I was previously using...  so that's apparently not 
any sort of indicator of correctness :p

Try Ralph's script, and then chamging the cpu_type to SA110 manually... 
that worked for me, even with a ROM image that has a different hash.

TTFN,
