That's very interesting. Which boot sequence did you use? Clearly the 6.20 boot can't work, because that softloads over 4.39 in ROM. Using RISC OS, the rom-images can be de-compressed as described in http://compgroups.net/comp.sys.acorn.apps/converting-compressed-riscos-rom-images-t/1232757 This produces a 6MB rom-image, identical to that produced by *save 620rom 3800000 3e00000 , as described in the marutan link, above. When I try to use 620rom in RPCEmu 0.8.9, on a Windows host, I see Error: DataAbort: Abort on data transfer at &0380BE64 (Error number &80000002) on a black screen (after the coloured screens) prior to entering the wimp. Would anyone know of a way around the problem? Tony _______________________________________________ Rpcemu mailing list [email protected] http://www.riscos.info/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rpcemu
