Hey unmapped (I am ThatOSDeveloper on GitHub and discord it's my display name) I never knew you got doom running on it, pretty cool, but I have a few questions, is it the original doom, is it on disk or an initramfs and do you use freedom or the shareware doom wad with the engine you use?

It's doomgeneric, as can be seen in the article, with a fairly small amount of modifications, as can be seen at the top of this page.

Hi, I use DoomGeneric which is a portable fork of Doom. It's on a TempFS loaded from an initrd. I use doom1.wad.
