WORKS ! ! ! - Thank you.
After see that I have to keep the hotsync loaded and the correct directory
for Palm Debugger
and creating the subdir to receive the file I can download my VISOR ROM.
But I have a Deluxe Visor and with only 2M download I can use in POSE.
I try to download 800000 (just like in
http://discussion.visorcentral.com/vcforum/showthread.php?threadid=4884 )
AND the file was created with only 4M and an error was displayed.
Anyone knows why works with only 2M
I think POSE uses only the ROM (probably 2M).
and why I can't take all 8M ? - It's my ram ?
Tks
