Thanks. I'll enjoy having a look at how this alternative DOS is configured :)

There are two other ROMS I've come across, but both are recently developed, unlike FlexiDOS.

Fabrizio Di Vittorio has developed a diagnostic ROM (2019) to test the firmware of the TC01. The ROM checks the RAM, PSG (AY-3-8910) and connected keyboard, VDP (TMS9129) and VRAM, FDC (FD1770), CTC (timer), PCI (8251 USART), and PIO (parallel IO). This is available on GitHub.

Charlie Robson has developed the EinSDein SD card interface that is supported by an additional ROM. Further details of the einSDein are also available on GitHub.

Good to know it'll get a wider audience, let me know if there any emulation issues.

Thanks, wasn't aware of this so will try it.

Already knew about this and have recently emulated one of his similar interfaces for the Acorn Atom. The EinSDein is on my list of things to emulate.
