Re: CSL Cart...
OK - converted these screenshots to a binary image and the attached is what we get.
The ROM entry point is $18E0.
It looks like it''s a fair old size - possibly 16Kbytes from $100x through to $2FFF.
If you have the screenshot time - I am more than willing to punch in the data to see what we get!
The writes to $4xxx would appear to be mirroring $0xxxx - hopefully.

Re: CSL Cart...
Sorry mate I am unsure about what you need.
Do you want me to "dump" 16KBytes from $1000 to $2fff with my BASIC program?
Please instruct me asap.
Sorry I have to be "pushy" but I need to repack my Salora Manager stuff ASAP (in a couple of days).
I want to make sure that I can help you as much as possible before that date.
PS What do you mean by screenshot time?

Re: CSL Cart...
OK - today no hangover! - good start 
OK, yes I would need a dump of the memory space from $1000 to $3000, using the method you used before.
By screenshot time - I mean how long it takes to capture each screen full of data - so if it takes 1 minute - the entire process should take about 16-20 minutes.
I am not completely sure that this will be the final range - and we could be lucky in that it actually starts at $1800 - but best to be safe!
Thanks for putting the time in - it's appreciated!

Re: CSL Cart...
I modified the program a little bit to dump 128 bytes at a time (256 bytes won't fit the screen unfortunately).
Screenshot time is about 15 seconds to output data, shoot the photo and type a key to continue.
Most of the time was spent in resizing, cutting and sharpening the images and saving them to numbered files. Total time approx 35 minutes.
Unfortunately I have very limited internet data these days so I have to reduce the size prior to uploading the pics to my server.
64 screenshots total, dumped area is $1000 to $3000 as requested.
I am uploading the pics into my server. Please download the file from:
https://www.madrigaldesign.it/madrigal/m ... 0-3000.zip
* PLEASE CONFIRM ONCE YOU DOWNLOAD IT *
PS: I can dump more tomorrow if you want, then I will have to repack all my around tuesday.

Re: CSL Cart...
OK - downloaded - will post binary when completed.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!
Re: CSL Cart...
Out of curiosity, how do you convert my screenshots into hex data?

Re: CSL Cart...
Initial observations
ROM is mapped at $1100 - $1FFF, and from $2100-$2FFF
DISK I/O appears to be through new ports beginning at $1120
The available commands, as seen in the ROM are:
FORMAT, LOAD, SAVE, RUN, KFN, UNSAVE, PROTECT, UNPROTECT, CLOSE, READ, EXEC, WRITE, OPEN, RENAME, DIR, KFN1, KFN2, MSAVE, MLOAD, MRUN
The ROM image is my first pass - so there may be some typos still in there. My priority was to ensure that it was not obviously calling some non-BIOS space, as we are short on time.
Attached is the binary and crappy C code
