[Rpcemu] RpcEmu installation issue

Hi, I've been following the instructions at http://www.marutan.net/rpcemu/manual/#install, to install rpcemu (v. 0.8.14) onto my Linux desktop (Ubuntu 14.04). These instructions worked fine, and I managed to get RiscOs 3.71 running fine.

I then followed a link to http://www.4corn.co.uk/articles/rpcemu371win/ , which suggested installing a 'Universal Boot' onto the hostfs. Although these instructions came under the heading of a Windows installation, I assumed they would also be relevant to a Linux install. However, I now get an error each time I reboot. It's difficult to read the error logs in the console window, but when the desktop appears, I get an alert, and when I click the 'Describe' button, it says 'SWI &A0F00E not known'.

Should I not be attempting to boot from hostfs?

Another quite different question, regarding old archimedes games. I found a bunch of images available at http://www.emuparadise.me/Acorn_Archimedes_ROMs/58, and was wondering whether these would run under rpcemu? I gave one of the games a try (Lemmings), but simply got a black screen when I tried to start the app.

Many thanks for your sterling work,
George
