Re: the 232-pak pin cutting issue again...

The note you included in your last posting said that the jumper in the
PAK connected the 6551's IRQ line to the NMI line (BTW, was that an
excerpt from RAINBOW??).. well, not REALLY. Originally they had
intended to use the NMI line... if you'll look very closely, you'll
see that the trace to the NMI pin (was it 6??) has been cut, and
that the jumper actually connects to the FIRQ pin (pin 8).. This is
seen by the system as a CART interrupt. Regarding your setup (ROM
removed, but pin 8 left intact) - all is well. Glad it all worked out
for you..
