I get the COMMAND window open. I get to the point where I select what type of ROM I want to make for my DIAMOND and then I get the error for all options. "Missing OS.nb.payload from ROM folder"
I extracted a file with that name and put it in the folder called .ROM, but that didn't change anything.

I'd also like to know how to be able to use different SYS files with the kitchen. I remember that in older kitchens, we just put the whole RARed file somewhere- but it looks like the SYS files that are there now are not compressed. And I don't know how to select one or another from within BuildOS. Or should there be only one in the folder.

Thanks for any helpful responses.

Looks like the file did not extract correctly as you are missing the ROM & SYS folders, so reextract or redownload. Also if your showing hidden system files, then you are missing files in the main folder also

I classify a freeze as typing away, suddenly the screen no longer accepts inputs from me, it hangs on my last touch or press. This "hang" or "freeze" lasts from 1 to 5 seconds in most cases.

Quite annoying, the 4.5 is perfect (as is other ROMs, like Mighty's) but this freeze bug is plauging every ROM since the "leaked" ROM and UP.

Hopefully someone can figure out the source of the problem.

Good Luck chef's!

I hadn't had any freezing for while until yesterday while I was doing some heavy texting but it only froze twice for like 2 secs back to back and didn't happen again. But now I'm getting frustrated with this problem, so from now on, my main focus will be to fix it once and for all and I will not make another release until it's fixed

Hmm. I'll re-download, as both the download and extraction showed that it went fine, to err on the side of caution.
Meanwhile, I flashed your ROM last night and after multiple hard resets, it seems to be working well.

Can anyone answer the question in the second part of my original post?

Thanks Calc! I used your kitchen and now I'm using the fastest most stable ROM yet. I stripped it down to just what I needed.

You rock!

Honestly, to me, that's all that this ROM needs. Otherwise, it's a pretty spectacular release, I'll continue using it for sure. Like you said, it comes and goes, so it's tolerable.

Keep up the good work!

I'm really nervous about this stuff, so i probably do this the wrong/long way, but it works for me.

In the kitchen I have folders named the numbers of the SYS. These folders have the SYS and ROM folders in them. When I'm going to build, I take the SYS and ROM folders out and move them to the kitchen proper. After I build I move the folders back to the "number named" folder so I remember what they are. I have 3 SYS Numbers in the kitchen on my desktop now. I've built with them all like this and it works for me. Hope I helped.

Did I explain that OK?

My SYS files include the ROM & SYS folders, so just replace those 2 folders to change the SYS/OS
