The whole thing is based on the 1541 so block level access should be
possible.

I already noticed that the fastloaders I encountered either rely on 1541
routines, like the Power Cartridge, and those have moved, changed or
even disappeared, or try to access the data directly by manipulating one
or both 6522's, like the FC3. And these have no use anymore in my
system.
The only fastloaders that works WO problems so far is JiffyDOS.
