Hi all !
I've built a cartridge with FM capabilities but without the bios.
Is there any way to load and use FM bios in RAM ?
Thanks

There is another option. Put the bios inside the rom of the machine, make sure the rom is the one for external use. I think the RSBC has such bios that have both, internal and external.

I have some machines with FM bios but not all.
I also have real FM PAC and repro FM PAC.
I'd like my project feet all MSX in case of sharing project.

I am curious to see the final project. I might be useful for me because I want to build sound cartridge for personal experience. I try to learn as much as possible.

I'm not sure it will work. A ram segment will be detected as ram and used like that by the running program, for instance to store data that will overwrite Fm bios code.
