Do you mean "help" literally, or do you mean "who can do this for me"?
To answer your question, yes I can do it. But unless they are either
brilliant games that one wants to play every day or you have a very good
explanantion why you can't boot with CTRL, I think I can better spend my
time on other things.
By the way, I think there are two easier solutions than the one you
described:
1. make it load in 16K BLOAD blocks
2. make it load from 1 giant file using an ML loader
