John understood the question, and said that I could copy from disc image 
to harddisc image; as the GoMMC appears to be capable of assigning 
different images to different 'drives' (it isn't a one-at-a-time).

Ah, good.

In a nutshell, how is HADFS 'better' than generic ADFS?

Which I hope to remove one (or more) and replace with a FlashROM. I 
think I'll have to be DNFS as I'd need FS access to load up images to 
commit to ROM. ;-)

No, what I meant is IIRC the DNFS contains the Tube *driver* code - so 
if I use co-pros (which I will), I'd need that somewhere.


Best wishes,
