Flash Programmer for CBM Basic 4.0 (CBM
4000/8000)
|
Introduction
|
I've coded this software for
the mighty
Universal 6502 RAM and ROM
expansion. This usefull expansion was developed by
Nicolas Welte. It uses a 128Kb Amtel-Flash and 32Kb S-RAM for different
6502 based computers and peripherals. The Flash is banked into 4
ROM-Sets including the later PET Option-ROMs. The configurable S-RAM
replaces (in use) the existing memory.
So it's a very powerful tool for trouble-shooting or testing own
software.

About
|
The
software uses auto-detection of RAM-size and used ROMs. This is for
your information and later development. One day we'll have a program
for all CBM-machines.
The software is still under
construction. The final version will be distributed with documented
source under GPL-License.
|
To do
|
* Floppy-detect
* Support for some more
Amtel-Flashs.
* All in one-version for all
CBMs with autodetection of RAM and known ROMs
