Me, again, probably this is painfully obvious, but I can't see..
How on earth can I get a 512K cart to boot in MESS ?
I'm trying something along the lines of this cart configuration:
http://www.atarihq.com/danb/7800cart/C301105.shtml
512K ROM, Pokey, 32 banks of 16K..
The header A78 header is setup correctly, yet MESS just dies on booting up
with an illegal operation ?
The header looks like this, which I think is correct ?
I'm suspecting that it's one of the (Special bits) 8-15 in the cart type
field ? But I've no idea what to plug in there for the above 512K
configuration ?
