    Known Problems

    • unable to test with the VICE drive tests, as those will (for the most part) not work at all
    • Currently the device will crash when a CR2032 battery is inserted
    • There is no way to see what version a firmware update is
    • Firmware can not be downgraded
    • very small, almost unreadable, font used for the file selector on the LCD

    Documentation

    Unfortunately, no documentation exists other than what is on the project page (and is duplicated here).

    Firmware

    The most recent firmware update files can be found here.

    Updating

    1. Turn off C64
    2. Prepare empty SD card, FAT32 formatted
    3. Copy firmware update files to the Root of the SD card
    4. Plug SD card into the UK1541
    5. Turn on C64
    6. Firmware will get updated, wait until UI shows windows
    7. Remove files from SD card after update. If you try to update an already updated core, firmware update will stop.
