Jim, Considering the purpose of this cart is to eliminate the need to desolder a kernal rom, would you be against using a clip to the 6510's PIO pin to en/disable your ultimax trigger depending on the port pin? This would only be one lead to run into the system. I can't think of a good way of doing this from outside the c64, but I'd love to hear others' input. :) -jbev On Thu, 18 Nov 2010, Jim Brain wrote: > Given the fact that many C64 machines have non socketed KERNAL ROMs, I > continually receive requests for a KERNAL ROM cart. > > Academically, I see how to do it by driving ULTIMAX mode during > $e000-$ffff reads, but that only works when RAM is banked out.
