Hi Allan, Since nobody answered, it seems that nobody has anything they want to give you. I'm pretty sure people have done this sort of thing in the past. I'm quite certain that it can be done now. Unfortunately you can never apply the word "easy" or any of its derivative forms to directory coherence, but I will say that there are many positive aspects of M5's design that might make it less hard. The primary thing being the port interface and the way memory objects can communicate with each other. If you do decide to give it a shot, feel free to ask questions on the list. Many of us know quite a bit about these sorts of things. I will ask that you be specific and detailed though. You're much more likely to receive a response on this sort of stuff if you've done your homework and ask a thoughtful question.
