[SOLVED] Adding roms to mame4all
It's different than the path you stated in the first post though... Don't use the roms folder inside /home/pi/emulators/mame4all/roms use the one I show above.

[SOLVED] Adding roms to mame4all
There is a dedicated folder setup for roms. Use /home/pi/roms/mame4all - there are also other folders inside that roms folder for other systems.

AdvanceMAME version
I don't believe there is a program for Linux to convert the roms. However you could run VirtualBox which will allow you to create a Windows virtual machine on Linux. Post back your results.
