Bit of a step forward in terms of REXCPM for T200. In experiments on a real T200 (not virtualT), I get the following nice result. Question: What memory is accessed in the "address hole" from 8000-9FFF" when Option ROM is selected (BANK3)? - ideally CP/M needs a full 64k - we have ram from

Henner, I have taken both approaches. I have a few comments: 1) RAMRST serves to protect RAM during power events. So, I think you can for sure use it to disable the internal ram, but then you need to take some precautions on whatever RAM you add. I don't think it's purpose was to disable ram
