Hello fellow KLOVers,

I have a logistical question for any of your preservationists pros. I've got a stack of SEGA Lindbergh Red and Yellow installation DVPs and security PICs. I'm thinking that maybe some of these games are currently un-dumped but I've not had much luck finding a definitive list. I know there's some kind of multi-game available for the Lindbergh but I'm not sure if that data was ever made publicly available. Anyone know of a good source of guidlines on this? Are these games "too new" to be archived? Should I just dd them all into ISOs and plop them on archive.org? Someplace else? Am I crazy and this has already been done? Thanks!
 
Here's a quick and dirty picture of what I've got. (I made the spine labels with a label maker.)

Definitely @Phil Bennett's territory moreso than it is mine. I'd imagine there's more to it than ripping the ISO, but I haven't much experience with these systems.

From what I understand, the DVPs are encrypted so I imagine a dd rip would be 1:1 but the security PIC would need to be replicated for it to be useful in a Lindbergh cabinet. It would be helpful for someone that had an HDD die (already running with a PIC for said game) and needed to reinstall though I suppose.
 
Maybe I can dump the PICs with my EPROM programmer?
 
I labeled the PICs too so they can't get mixed up. I don't know why SEGA did not do these things.

edit: fixed broken picture

If I remember correctly some of this Lindbergh stuff is already in Mame. The rest the CDs can be dumped and freshly formatted drives can be dumped using CHDMAN.

That's what I'm trying to figure out. Which ones need dumped still and to where?

By default the Lindbergh driver isn't very clear. The source code does provide some clues as to which games have been successfully dumped.

Code:
