Using your own routines is just another way of interception. The only thing I want is to implement them in ROM because using RAM means the routines have to be reloaded after every reset.
Hmmm, question: how are you going to use them? For example, how are you going to tell your 1541 to behave like a 8250? (remark: as far as it concerns the floppy, not the hardware; the 1541 has only 2 KB of RAM for example) The 1541 is not equiped with RAM vectors like the C64 so how are you going to re-route a command?

Please explain a bit more what the role of the Atmel is.

I found out they work fine. The problem started when I converted bytes read from the floppy disk into normal bytes and back again. I found out that there was en error with the read data.

The hardware is quite simple: only solder a 25 pins D-connector on your 6522.
I started to write new software. The idea is anyway to forget the concept of G64 for the moment; I just store the bytes I receive and send them back when needed. When this works out fine, I analyse the stored data to see how I can combine the result with G64 and D64 images.
