Do anyone out there know how I can get around the 64k limit of a self booting floopy disk? I know up to 40k of data on the floppy.

I´m sorry, but a copy of my ROM-Emulator would not be what you expext ...
I was not talking about Software. The Emulator is a little piece of
Hardware
that I bought. It is intended to be inserted into a standard 32 Pin Jedec-Memory Socket. Then you download a 64k image via the parallel port
of
any PC into this Hardware. You press reset at the board and it boots ... well sometimes ...
If you are interested in such an Hardware try th e following urls as a start:
www.hed.de (they make tools for embedded and microcontrol. I once talked
to
their Boss and got the impression that they are really good!)
www.embedded-tools.de (they have a modular Emulator called PromJet. Its
able
to act like rom/ram/flash up to 16Mbit and 32Bit Words. Furthermore it
can
handle operating voltages from 2 to 5V. It also has an ethernet plug ...)
Well this is not an advertisement ... I did not test these devices but
they
seem interesting to me ...
