Hrmpf :( I have been there already ;) Guess what - The SNI RM Prom is even more broken - it lacks a seek call so reading from a filesystem is not possible. I disassembled the full PROM and found the seek code to be there but only lacks the entry point. So i wrote code to search the seek functions prolog in the binary prom between the open and read entry points.
