I just saw that Paul oversaw something :). The source for filesys_bootrom.cpp is indeed included, it's right there and called "filesys.asm" which is to be assembled, then converted with the script filesys.sh to generate filesys_bootrom.cpp. > If that controller is not required for the function of the package you > have the option to remove it.

Well, I know the person who actually designed the controller hardware, Jens Schoenfeld, I'll ask him. I guess he also has the driver source and I will ask Frode to include it. >> As for the "sinctable.cpp" file, I'm not sure exactly what it does, >> but is it really necessary to have the Python script available? > > We need the preferred form of modification for a work.

Should be the same for "e-uae". I'll figure out where it comes from. Adrian -- .''`.
