Re: WHOOPS ! (oh not not him again)

It's a 2732, verified by checking that A11 from the cartridge connector is wired to pin 21 on the PROM.

Re: WHOOPS ! (oh not not him again)

Pictures, ROM dump and a brief speech sample (!) added to the wiki. The pictures are of relatively poor quality. I might take new ones one of these days. Liberal amounts of glue have gone into the construction of this cartridge so I was unable to pry the PCB out of the casing. We'll see if I can mus...

Re: WHOOPS ! (oh not not him again)

No need to speculate, guys. I found the cartridge and will pry it apart tomorrow.

Re: WHOOPS ! (oh not not him again)

I've started the wiki page and linked the scanned manual. It seems like the cartridge itself has been misplaced somewhere. I saw it just weeks ago so it's probably ended up in one of my several "misc boxes". I'll see if I can recover it and get pictures, dumps, the works...

Re: WHOOPS ! (oh not not him again)

I actually have the JCB speech synthesis cartridge (with manual) lying around somewhere. I can try to dig it out and get the manual properly scanned etc etc etc.

Re: asm6809 2.3 released

I wasn't aware of the difference between PC and PCR. More testing tomorrow!

Re: asm6809 2.3 released

Asm6809 has always been great, but here's a quick question regarding indexed addressing. It seems asm6809 (also the old Perl version) handles indexed addressing differently than other 6809 assemblers that I have tested. The following simple program demonstrates the difference: leax welcome,pc loop l...

Re: DWLOAD - DriveWire for everybody

DriveWire is not compatible with the disk controller that FLEX assumes. You can probably load the boot record from the Flex image, but once the boot program tries to read the rest of the OS image it will try to access a disk controller and not DriveWire. A patched FLEX distibution is needed, or a Dr...
