Subject: A quick question about EPROM programming
Hi,
Just a meaningless email, but I thought I should share what I just
experienced. I found a loose Commodore 64 cartridge board on the
desk and decided to see what's on it. Hm, regular Basic prompt when
I power on the computer.
So I decide to read the first couple of hundred bytes to figure out
what the onboard EPROM may contain.. DFS 0.90 it says! Apparently
at some point I have programmed a 2764 with DFS, misplaced the
EPROM and stuck it into a C64 cartridge board. :-D
Now I'll try to figure out how to adopt the ROM, and since both
computers are 6502 based, in theory the code should be executable
although it will try to reference ROM and hardware not existing.
Next week I'll try the opposite, stuck some C64 utility ROM into
my BBC Micro and see if it picks it up. :-P
Best regards
