No, this isnt for writing a virus or anything, I just would like to know the procedure so I can put a program to disable fast ram and stuff on games that dont like the extra memory. Do I boot up sectorama and copy the entire file byte by byte into block 0 or what? And do I have to change the header on the data to anything different? And as a final note, dont hit me over the head with a rom kernal manual, Ive already found it to be impossible to understand on this specific subject.
