[Coco] Before I try to reinvent the wheel, has anyone made a "boot to coco" raspberry pi system?

This project seems doable.

In general, it seems possible to:

  1.  Get a Raspberry pi (with Debian or Ubuntu)
  2.  Install an emulator on Debian
  3.  Set up a Coco ROM in it
  4.  Set the OS to boot straight to the emulator
  5.  Release the image file so others can burn an SD card for themselves

I've looked a tiny bit at the Retro Pie arcade system which gave me this idea.  This seems a little tricky (I know very little Unix) but possible.  Does anyone know if this has been tried or completed before?  I figure the Commodore 64 crowd might have already done this, but google didn't help much.

Thanks all!
John
