I fear never. None was supplied on the C64 and 1541.

Here in Germany we HAVE disassembled ROM listing of exec, the boot rom
of the A1000, the bootstrap and most resources and devices. Two parts are
available, Part 1 contains Exec, Bootstrap and Boot Rom and part 2 contains
the drivers and resources. Both books have a short introduction to the
structures used by the code. I think there will be no more parts following
because:
1) The books sell badly (I really don't understand that!) and
2) who wants to disassemble BCPL or this huge intuition or graphics libs?
Here's the title:
Dr.Ruprecht: Amiga Kommentiertes ROM Listing, Mediscript Verlag Munchen
The only problem: they are in German :-)

>(( Just kidding .... but you get what I mean ?? ))
Yes I do. Especially dealing with exec (eg. writing device driver)
is far more easier with a rom listing at hand.
