Which part of the EPROM gets selected is also done by 2 of the _CS lines. You just need to put the 8 K BASIC and KERNAL and the 4 K char into the right parts of the EPROM.

Could you have a look at:

I didn't like this sentence ;-) Especially that second KERNAL (DolphinDOS, Jiffy, ..) is really good thing to have. That's why I put the jumper and used the second gate. I am somewhat unsure about the pullup R302 but generally the idea should do the trick, right? Any comments? TNX in advance.

P. S. I am still thinking of dropping in a second charset too. Like the one from C128 and have ASCII/DIN switch.
