creating own roms

Post by Traindriver69 »

hi all
Received my first ql today and found it has the JM rom set installed I see that I can get hold of images to create my own updated roms if i was to buy a eeprom programmer but my question is what type of blank rom do i need to look for to program with the image.

Unfortunately, it is not that easy, as only very early QLs could be used with EPROMs - see the thread at:

Anyone know what has happened to Dave recently? He was going to make some more Minerva chips...

I think he is busy working (he has got a real life job).

Step up to red alert. Sir, are you absolutely sure? It does mean changing the bulb :!:
Looking forward to summer in Somerset later in the year :)
