Trouble booting from HxC device

2015-11-10 by brian_ronn@...

Hi Wizards

I have trouble booting from the Lotharek HxC device.

I'm able to boot from HD and the OS is Plus 1.0.

When making the hfe files on the SD card I have put the emaxplus10.emx file in between the emx banks and I have converted the files to hfe files using the HxC floppy emulator software but cannot boot from the hfe files.

I can se that I can boot from the SD hfe files from sector 12 to 28 and the Emax freezes with blank spaces or scrambled letters on the display. Using different emx os (plusHD, plusSEHD, HD) I get the same result.

If I copy the OS software from HD and overwrite on of the hfe files on the SD card I can boot from this particular hfe bank only.

Do you know what might be wrong with the hfe files since they are unbootable?

Best regards

Brian
