        "notes": "The successor of Lindbergh Loader from the same team, in a repository of its\nown, built for Linux and for 32-bit Windows. RetroBat installs the Windows\nrelease as linuxloader.exe with an ll-deps folder beside it\n(emulatorlauncher Installer.cs:85, emulatorlauncher Program.cs:114) and\nruns it from that folder with -g <game>/disk0[/<launcher>], plus -c, -o and -d for the\nconfiguration, controls and controller database files it writes there\n(emulatorlauncher Linuxloader.Generator.cs:144-181, 196-213).\n\nOn Linux the launcher puts linuxloader.so in LD_PRELOAD, found in /app/lib32,\nthe AppImage lib32, the -L directory, ll-deps, the loader directory, then the\nsystem 32-bit library folders, and runs the game ELF\n(src/loader/mainShared.c:355-380, 1149-1168). On Windows there is no Linux\nruntime at all. src/loader/elfLoader maps the game ELF itself and resolves\nevery DT_NEEDED library through SymbolResolver\n(src/loader/elfLoader/symbolResolver.cpp:249-371). Libraries listed in\nsrc/loader/elfLoader/elfLoader.cpp:360-401 are answered by a Windows DLL\n(libCg.so by Cg.dll, libCgGL.so by CgGL.dll, libopenal.so.0 and .1 by\nopenal32.dll, libz.so.1 by zlib1.dll, libgcc_s.so.1 by libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll)\nor by the loader's own bridges (libc, libpthread, libGL, libasound, X11,\nlibsegaapi, libkswapapi and the rest marked INTERNAL). Any other library is\nloaded as a native 32-bit Linux shared object from the search path: the\nexecutable folder, ll-deps, the -L directory, the game folder, its lib\nsubfolder, ../dso/q2satl_lind/release and data/drv/cri/lindbergh/libs\n(symbolResolver.cpp:153-226). A missing libstdc++ ends the run, any other\nmissing library is logged and its symbols stay unresolved\n(symbolResolver.cpp:364-371). The Windows release ships these as ll-deps,\ncopied from libs/win32/ll-deps plus the MinGW libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll\n(scripts/windows/windows-build.sh:6-7).\n\nThe Lindbergh hardware is emulated in the loader with no firmware file.\nThe fopen hooks answer /dev/zero or NUL for the baseboard, EEPROM, serial\nports and PCI config space (src/loader/redirections/filesystemShared.c:200-280,\n319-420). eeprom.bin is opened from the working directory and created when\nabsent (src/loader/hardware/lindbergh/eepromSettings.c:251-256), sram.bin\ndefaults to the working directory and is created on first open\n(src/loader/config/config.c:133-134, hardware/lindbergh/baseBoard.c:64-78),\nand card reader files InidCrd%03d.crd or InidCard%02d.crd are written from\nscratch (hardware/lindbergh/cardReader.c:249-253, 386-397). linuxloader.ini\nand controls.ini are optional, each falling back to built-in defaults\n(src/loader/mainShared.c:945-1020).\n\nShaders come from the game dump. The Cg 2.0 runtime is loaded only for the\ntitles whose patches recompile them: Harley-Davidson, Quiz Answer x Answer,\nRambo, The House of the Dead EX and Too Spicy\n(src/loader/patching/patch.c:527, 2553, 2587, 2621, 2655, 3090, 3156).\nPrimeval Hunt runs through Mesa's Zink driver by default\n(PRIMEVAL_HUNT_USE_ZINK, src/loader/config/config.c:166, 387).\n\nThe boot logos and console fonts are compiled in. resources/lindberghLogo.h\nand resources/font.h carry the same bytes as the Lindbergh Loader\nbuilt-ins (sha1 c800e91a, 9a888a49, 6fcc3fff and e0814d3d). The originals\nare read from the game folder only with DISABLE_BUILTIN_LOGOS or\nDISABLE_BUILTIN_FONT (src/loader/config/config.c:167-168, 372-373).\n",
