switching halves of the EPROM on Scorpio
ZXNet echo conference «zx.talking»
From Vladimir Larkov → To Alexandr Kushnikov 7 March 2000
Hello, Alexandr!
Sat 04-Mar-2000 23:38, you (500:95/462.12) wrote a letter to me:
VL>> it is called " number 31 "
VL>> In the old panels it was rigidly pulled in
VL>> to +5, in the new ones it sits at "1".

VL>> You plant this leg on the ground. I tried it right now -
VL>> switch great. I have a scarf of the Ear version
VL>> 2, there’s even a track on it for this thing, dammit, in

Ты пpавильную ногу тpогал? Is your adapter old/new? You take the PROM,
you pull it out, bend your leg 31, put it on the ground, stick the PROM into the bed,
what effect? (The legs are counted from the key counterclockwise if the small diagram
notes down, inscriptions up).
AK> And what is written there in the other half? And in general what's going on there
AK> when switching?Visually, nothing changes. Only in the romdisk instead of what was on
default, I have:
COMMANDER
ZXWORD
MAGOS_6.3
STS_5.1
ADS_2.01
FPM_3.05
ZXTOOLS
appear:
ZxUnZip
ZxZip
TASM_4.0
SM_2.01
HD_Copy_1.7
TESTFDD
BTW do you have a 4,000th EPROM? What is written on it?
PS: yes, in fact, IMHO, after connecting the hdd, the romdisk was completely lost
relevance, for example, for the first time in these years, you made me remember that
that it exists ;)
With best wishes, Vladimir.
