Fantastic !

And the dump is perfect: the OS and the sound bank are nicely sitting together on - wintermute just sent me this first revolutionary file for analysis and it was a piece of cake to extract the SDforEII file from it and load it via RS422 into my EII for test purposes.

This is really great.

Who would have expected this only a year ago :-) ?
Our Emulators fully loaded with bootable OS and hundreds of banks on the SD "EII hard drive", and connectable to a Windows PC with USB.

The EII beast is more than ever alive and kicking !

I'm wondering now how you will be able to "adapt" the board so that it fits nicely in a user friendly way in a 5.25 bay.

A bit like the custom built one in the DPX shown on youtube:
