Attaching the dumps of the two copies of the ROM I have. There is a single bit difference at offset 0x0D13, 0x7D in one version and 0xFD in the other so could be a single bit error rather than a fix. I dumped the first rom, then the second, then the first again and finally the second again. The ROMs...

Hi, I've just uploaded the manual and example programmes to the Upload section. I'm borrowing an EPROM programmer from a colleague at work tomorrow, and so hopefully will get clean dumps of the ROMs. I have two, both 2764 EPROMs, and so hopefully they dump identically or at least to sane diffs when ...

I scanned the manual and other sheets I have for this today. I'm borrowing an EPROM programmer to dump the two copies of the ROM I have - hopefully they dump the same, or have a sane diff when dissassembled and aren't corrupt after all these years.

Do you still need a copy? I came across mine tonight - it is 60 pages plus a 2 page errata sheet, so will take some time to scan, but it's a very good reference.

I found a Coco 1 and 2 at an estate sale yesterday, so provided they work I'm now set.

Thanks Ciaran, can't wait to try this out! I bought one of the kits as I thought it would be a fun project, but now I need to find a Coco :) I gave my pile of 2s plus a huge 3 system to another member of the Coco list who works at the same place as me when I last moved - I have no emotional attachme...

Hi Simon, I had used VCopy and Omniflop in the past, but I remember a few disks not reading correctly and so was hoping for better luck with the kryoflux - plus my current PC doesn't have a floppy connector on the motherboard :) I'll try and get an older PC - there are always people at work clearing...

I was wondering if anyone has successfully used a Kryoflux for backing up DragonDOS or OS9 disks? I bought one about four years ago, and like everything else Dragon took a complete back burner since then with work and the birth of our second child. Now I maybe see myself having some time to get one ...

Yeah, soldered on this one too. Do you think rigging up an adaptor with a test clip would work in-circuit (without powering up the board)?

Haha I'm sure you could! Sorry all that's left in the UK are 3x Dragon 32 and I think they are all just bare machines - picked them up at car boot sales for around 60p each for spares.
