How did you do that? Using the standard 2764->2364-Adapter or were you 
able to find the fabled EPROMs that directly fit into the sockets?

More than once I thought about doing the same. But with a single 27C128 
in an adapter in one of the sockets, a diode AND gate for the _CS 
signals and stealing the missing address line A12 from the CPU. So far I 
have been too lazy to do it though.
