Alpha 4 : first support for RG35xx-H

Changelog:

• Fix an issue where share partition were not recognizable by windows.
• Added a loading screen with messege indicators for running processes. Reassuring the user that the device is not freezing.
• First support for the RG35xx-H.
  • Fixed menu button short click to open retroarch.
  • mapping retroarch to stock configs.
  • added all previous features along.
• Speed up boot time further more. This is I guess the limit of this CFW as in comparision to other CFW, Emulationstation is heavy and loading it will take time unfortunatly.
• HDMI fixes.
  • HDMI will work in the main menu of ES.
  • Starting a game while HDMI is connected works.
  • If you connect HDMI while a game is running nothing will happen.
  • you need to exit the game then connect the HDMI and start the game afterwards. this is a limitation of the current implementation.

Upcoming:

• Design modification of the minulli theme. better layout for images and covers
• Adding msgs to indicate saving state is to be loaded upon restart
• loading ES in memory at boot for faster startup? experimental.
• You tell me

Alpha 3

Changlog

• boot time has been cut to half. Userspace now booted in 10sec. (Kernal/uboot are minimized to 7-8 sec)
• Added an automatic script to add your own pico8 bin . this will generate the required files for you with the right premission (needs testers as I don't own the pico8 bin)
• Switched to a traditional rootfs partition instead of using Squashfs. saves 4 sec of booting time and allows for persistance of changes.
• Improvement in the audio server section. separeting excution of wireplumber and pipewire daemon . speeding up the booting time.
• Adding havegd which handle the kernel rng gen.
• misc changes .

The most apparant improvement you will notice is faster boot time in comparision to the previous alpha.

Enjoy
