Hi Christian,

Glad it worked.

Good question. I don't know. The file avr8/words/store-i_big.asm may give some
clues.

Again, I don't know. However, if the board has an ATmega2560 mcu
running at 16 MHz then there is good chance. I think only by flashing
the board and testing it will you have a better idea.

Yes.

Kind regards,

Tristan
