I tried to build Martin Mather's MMC interface for the BBC Micro last year,
but I didn't succeed to get it to work. Actually I didn't get to read 5V
from the computer's user port so the fault might be bad power distribution.
The Beeb has empty ROM slots and such, although this project replaces the
Disk Filing System with one that supports his MMC interface.

I know there is at least one similar C64 project where development may have
stopped halfways. It should be possible to locate with a search engine,
unless someone posts (already posted?) links to the list. The project above
might also be possible to adopt to the Commodore range of computers, and
since the BBC is 6502 based, some of the code may be reusable?
